Annotation This new approach to mathematics--the utilization of advanced computing technology in mathematical research--is often called experimental mathematics. The computer provides the mathematician with a "laboratory" in which she can perform experiments--analyzing examples,…
"Using examples that truly represent the experimental methodology, this book provides the historical context of, and rationale behind, experimental mathematics. It shows how today, the use of advanced computing technology provides, mathematicians with an amazing, previously unim…
