  2. Education (Some Indian Statistics) • Total population below 14 is around 250 million. • Maximum number of ‘out of school’ children in world. • Nowhere Children:- Around 90 million children are neither enrolled in school nor accounted for as labour. • Only 60% of children reach grade V. • Many of those ‘completing’ primary school cannot read or write. • Every child is curious, creative, intelligent, innocent and beautiful. • Why and where he loose these qualities. • Somewhere society (present normal setup of mind, current values and education modes) is responsible for this state of affairs. • Hope:- Efforts under UGC, DST, NMEICT of MHRD etc. • http://www.sakshat.ac.in/

  3. NMEICT (MHRD) www.sakshat.ac.in • Around 30 programs:- • e-content development in all the branches of knowledge at UG and PG levels, • Development of Pedagogical methods of teaching and research in e-learning, • Teachers empowerment through training in Computer Applications to various subjects in Universities and Colleges, • Development of Computer Simulation packages in various subjects of science and humanities, • Introduction of one compulsory paper/project for on-line training at PG level • More details on these and other activities of the mission can be obtained from the following file web-link: • http://www.sakshat.ac.in/PDF/Missiondocument.pdf

  4. MATHEMATICA – AN INTRODUCTIONPart I: Basics and Arithmetics Input and Output Number Representation & Arithmetic Computations Built-in Constants & FunctionsComplex Arithmetic Operations

  5. Introduction:- Computer-based symbolic computation has a very significant role in computer world. Still it is a very under-used, probably because of a reluctance to break from tradition. Today symbolic manipulation has become a powerful tool, which boosts productivity It runs on most popular workstation OS, including Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh OS, Linux, and other Unix-based systems. • Mathematica today is used in all the branches of knowledge: • Physical science, • Biological science, • Social science, • Commerce, • Education, • Enginering, • Computer science, • etc. Over 100 specialized commercial packages and over 200 books for Mathematica and its applications

  6. 0. Phases of the computer algebra:- First Generation: Reduce has packages suited to the needs of the high energy physicist. Macsyma is slow and lacks a friendly interface. Second Generation: Maple has strong algebraic and graphics capability. Third Generation: Mathematica is a very user-friendly interface and superb graphic abilities. A standard tool for research, development and production of software. MatLab & MathCad are also available with similar facilities.

  7. 1. Who Created Mathematica? Stephen Wolfram is the creator of Mathematica. His early work: mainly in high-energy physics, quantum field theory, and cosmology. In 1979, he began the construction the computer algebra system. He began the development of Mathematica in 1986. 1st version released on June 23, 1988, hailed as a major advance in computing world. In 1991, its Window version 2 was developed by him and his team. Before 2004, versions 3, 4 and 5, now 6 introduced with new capabilities. Parallel Processing and Grid-Mathematica have also been launched. http://www.wolfram.com/

  8. 2. What can Mathematica do for you? STANDARD ARITHMETIC Operations with Integer, Rational, Real, and Complex nos with LARGE precision RICH in Built-in Constants & functions; Special functions, Creating New functions ALGEBRA Factorization, Simplification, Reduction, Solution of Simultaneous equations List manipulation: Vector, Matrix & Tensor operations; Sums & Products GRAPHICS 2D, 3D, Contour, Density, Parametric plots, Listplot; Sound and Animation CALCULUS Limits, Differentiation and integration, Taylor Series, Solving Differential Eqns. NUMERICAL ANALYSIS: Root Finding, Numerical Integration, Solving Differential Eqns., Curve Fitting, etc. PROGRAMMING In-built Interpreted Programming Language, also with Compilation facility FORMATTED OUTPUT: TeX, C and Fortran output,

  9. 3. Structure of Mathematica Modular software system:- KERNEL: main engine of the system containing all the functions (over 1000) WMATHEXE.EXP 3,979,305 (for Window Math2.2 version) FRONT-END: serves as the channel on which a user communicates with the kernel. STANDARD PACKAGES: special topics, like vector analysis, statistics, algebra, to graphics, etc. MATHSOURCE: collection of packages and notebooks created by Mathematica users. Feyndia, Math-Tensor, Graphics, and other Addons

  11. 4. Ten Commandments • Mathematica distinguishes between uppercase and lowercase letters. • 2. Mathematica commands, built-in functions, & constants start with a capital letter. • 3. Use lowercase letters for defining variables or functions. • 4. Arguments of all commands & functions are enclosed in square brackets[ ]. • 5. Use curly brackets{ } for lists of items, and range of parameters of the function. • 6. Parenthesis( ) is reserved for indicating the grouping of terms. • 7. Double brackets [ [ ] ] are used for indexing the components of an object. • 8. All functions, for numerical calculations, start with a capital N. • 9. Giving Remarks. Statements starting with (*and ends with *) are not executed. • 10. When Mathematica detects a syntax error, it prints a message.

  12. 5. How to Start Mathematica and Execute its Commands? Double click the Mathematica icon, or Math.Exe file When Mathematica starts, it shows you a blank notebook. Enter Mathematica commands into the notebook, and then press Shift-Enter keys to process the input given. Pressing the Enter key generates a new line. For getting Help on Mathematica Commands, use Help or type double question marks ?? before the command name. For instance ??Integrate

  14. Special Features (given in Help) • Core LanguageThe uniquely powerful symbolic language that is the foundation for MathematicaMathematics and AlgorithmsThe world's largest integrated web of mathematical capabilities and algorithms Data Handling & Data SourcesPowerful primitives and sources for large volumes of data in hundreds of formatsVisualization and GraphicsSymbolic graphics and unparalleled function and data visualization Systems Interfaces & DeploymentUnique customizability and connectivity powered by symbolic programming & parallel programmingDynamic InteractivityCapabilities that define a new kind of dynamic interactive computingNotebooks and DocumentsProgram-constructible symbolic documents with uniquely flexible formatting.

  15. 6. Input and Output Labels In[1] : = An input label appears at the beginning of every Input cell. These are numbered according to the order of evaluation. The result of the command is displayed in an Output cell, Out[n]= which is labeled according to the input label. Mathematica formats the material in Output cells in mathematical notation. e.g. type 5.3+2.9 and press Shift-Enter keys Mathematica shows: In[1]:= 5.3 + 2.9 Out[1] = 8.2

  16. 7. Number Representation & Arithmetic Computations Mathematica can distinguish between integer, rational, real, complex numbers. Following symbols are used to denote them: Addition + Subtraction - Multiplication * Division / Exponentiation ^ Parenthesis ( ) can be used to change order of operations. Note: - Multiplication can be represented by a space. Caution:x y means x * y but xy is treated as a new variablexy.

  17. 8. MIXED MODE OPERATIONS: When two constants or variables of the same type are combined through any of these fundamental operations, the result would be of the same type as that of the operands. Mathematica gives out of integer operation as integer, In[2] := 7^37 Out[2] = 18562115921017574302453163671207 Mathematica allows the mixed mode operations, e.g, where real number and integer are used. Result in such a case is given as real number. In[3] := 7.0^37 Out[3] = 31 1.85621 10

  18. 9. Variable Assignments A single equal sign is used to assign values directly to a variable. In[4]:= weight= 0.542 Out[4]= 0.542 In[5]:= counter = 1 Out[5]= 1 Arithmetic expression may also be assigned to a variable, In[6]:= y = x*x Out[6] = 2 x

  19. 10. Writing Results: Results obtained in a program are generally written using the following statement: Print[ variable ] Messages can be printed on screen by enclosing them in double quote (“) sign: In[8]:= Print[“You are welcome!”] Out[8] = You are welcome!

  20. 11. Numerical Resolution Mathematica can produce its approximate form, when N[ expression ] command is used. In[9]:= N[ 3^85 ] Out[9]= 40 3.59175 10 Here, N stands for numerical, and the command can be given as expression // N. e.g. In[9]:= 3^85//N To get the result up to a desired number of decimal place, say n digit precision, type N[ expression, n ] In[10]:= N[3^85, 10] Out[10]= 40 3.591754555 10
