Keith Devlin and Jonathan Borwein, two well-known mathematicians with expertise in different mathematical specialties but with a common interest in experimentation in mathematics, have joined forces to create this introduction to experimental mathematics. They cover a variety of…
Presents an introduction to experimental mathematics. This title covers a variety of topics and examples to give the reader a sense of the state of play in the field of experimental mathematics. It features explanations that are enhanced by relevant historical facts and stories …
What is experimental mathematics? -- What is the quadrillionth decimal place of p? -- What is that number? -- The most important function in mathematics -- Evaluate the following integral -- Serendipity -- Calculating p -- The computer knows more math than you do -- Take it to t…

"This revised and updated second edition maintains the content and spirit of the first edition and includes a new chapter, "Recent Experiences," that provides examples of experimental mathematics that have come to light since the publication of the first edition in 2003"--Jacket.
Papier und Bleistift wurden lange als die einzigen Hilfsmittel der Mathematiker betrachtet (einige würden hier auch noch den Papierkorb dazuzählen). Wie in vielen anderen Gebieten auch, hat allerdings in den letzten Jahren der Einsatz von Computern in der Mathematik stark zugeno…
"Soft condensed matter physics relies on a fundamental understanding at the interface between physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering for a host of materials and circumstances that are related to, but outside, the traditional definition of condensed matter physics. Featurin…
