DESCRIPTION:This course is part of the Scientific Computing series.\n\nMat
 hematica is a software package for numerical computation\, symbolic manipu
 lation and the production of graphics from mathematical functions and data
 . This course examines Mathematica's graphical capabilities in more detail
  than the "Mathematica: Basics" course.\n\nDuration: One half day session\
 n\nSessions:\nDate 	Time 	Venue 	Trainer\nTue 1 Jun 	09:30 - 13:00 	Room G
 L.04 (CMS\, Wilberforce Road) 	Bruce Beckles\n\nFormat: Self-paced practic
 als.\n\nPrerequisites:\n\n    * Knowledge of matrix algebra and simple cal
 culus is assumed.\n    * Prior attendance at the "Mathematica: Basics" cou
 rse or equivalent experience\n    * Those attending should be able to use 
 a plain text editor (e.g. emacs\, gedit\, pico\, vi) on a Unix system as m
 ight be obtained from the Emacs or Vi introductory courses.\n\nTopics cove
 red:\n\n    * Handling graphics\n    * Plotting data\n    * Combining grap
 hics\n\nSystem requirements: Mathematica v. 7 on PWF Linux\n\nNotes:\n\n  
   * No attempt is made to teach mathematical techniques.\n    * Attendees 
 may also be interested in the "Mathematica: Linear Algebra" course.
