Version 7

Mathematica for Students packs the same punch as the professional version meaning that students can utilize the same technology used by Nobel Prize winners, scientists, mathematicians and educators worldwide but at a fraction of the price. Mathematica for Students can help you with projects of all sizes from simple calculator operations to high level software development.

From simple calculator operations to large-scale programming and interactive document preparation, Mathematica is the tool of choice at the frontiers of scientific research, in engineering analysis and modeling, in technical education from high school to graduate school, and wherever quantitative methods are used.

Mathematica is the world's most powerful technical computing system. Used by over a million people in science, industry, and academia, Mathematica combines fast, high-precision numeric and symbolic computation with easy-to-use data visualization and programming capabilities. Mathematica creates publication-quality documents with its customizable, cross-platform file format.

What is the Mathematical Explorer?

What is a space-filling curve? What is the mathematical basis behind cryptography? How does the scanner at your grocery store know when it hasn't scanned a UPC number correctly? Now that Fermat's Last Theorem has been solved, what's the next big challenge for mathematicians? These questions and others are part of the explorations you will take in The Mathematical Explorer.
The Mathematical Explorer is for everyone, young or old, who has ever delighted in finding the unexpected. You won't need a degree in higher math; all you'll need is a little basic algebra and a sense of fun. More than just an electronic textbook, The Mathematical Explorer is part guide, part calculator, part museum, part textbook--and completely fun!

Based on Mathematica technology, this stand-alone product combines text, graphics, and formulas in an easy-to-use notebook interface that is completely interactive, making you a participant and not just a spectator to mathematical ideas. The Mathematical Explorer invites you to explore many interesting questions about both physical and abstract phenomena and to gain insight by computation and visualization.
