These two additions showcase recent advances in the Wolfram Language and ensure that the whole book remains relevant and up to date.'Christopher Hanusa, Queens College, City University of New York The new final chapter on 3D printing gives readers the tools to quickly design and 3D print physical objects that embody mathematical surfaces.

This new version shines some light on entity objects and accessing Wolfram's curated data which is needed because their structure is unintuitive and because of their growing prominence in the Wolfram ecosystem. 'This book is an easy-to-read introduction to Mathematica. It is interspersed with helpful hints that make interacting with Mathematica more efficient and examples to test the reader's comprehension. This book is good for learning how to use Mathematica to graph functions, perform algebraic manipulation, and approach topics from calculus and linear algebra.

The book does not assume that the reader is an expert in the underlying mathematics.

Clearly presents software commands and procedures alongside mathematical ideas to demonstrate how Mathematica® can illuminate high school and university mathematics.

Updated chapters cover the newest developments in the software, including natural language queries and the vast stores of real-world data now integrated through the cloud.

This third edition also includes many new exercises and a chapter on 3D printing that showcases the new computational geometry capabilities that will equip readers to print in 3D. There have been significant changes to Mathematica® since the second edition, and all chapters have now been updated to account for new features in the software, including natural language queries and the vast stores of real-world data that are now integrated through the cloud. Used as a supplementary text, it will help bridge the gap between Mathematica® and the mathematics in the course, and will serve as an excellent tutorial for former students. As a result, it provides a brief introduction to those aspects of the Mathematica® software program most useful to students. The unique feature of this compact student's introduction to Mathematica® and the Wolfram Language™ is that the order of the material closely follows a standard mathematics curriculum.
