Hi,
I am looking for a way to learn Maxima on some "hands on" examples. There is a
book
"Computer-Supported Calculus" by Adi Ben-Israel and Robert P.Gilbert.
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/3211829245/qid=1046976456/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_1/104-2193051-3133532?v=glance&s=books&n=507846
I would like to ask for commnets on 2 questions:
- Is it typically possible to take Macsyma code and run it in Maxima
- If anyone did see this book, could you comment on how many examples there
are and wherther you find it usefull (I canot really find much detail about
the book and did not find it in a bookstore to check)
Thanks, Milan
