What should mathematics majors know about computing, and when should they know it?

Robert Talbert, Ph.D.

As I teach my Linear Algebra and Differential Equations class this semester, which uses more computing than ever, I'm thinking even more about these topics. Yesterday I got an email from a reader who had read this post called What should math majors know about computing? Mostly this is because of two things.

LLM Tech and a Lot More: Version 13.3 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

We’ve worked very hard to make its design as clean and coherent as possible—and to make it a timeless way to elegantly represent computation and everything that can be described through it. Last Friday I fired up Version 1 on an old Mac SE/30 computer (with 2.5 Last Friday I fired up Version 1 on an old Mac SE/30 computer (with 2.5

The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

And all those years we’ve been continuing to build a taller and taller tower of capabilities, progressively expanding the scope of our vision and the breadth of our computational coverage of the world: Version 1.0 In the arc of intellectual history it defines a broad, new, computational paradigm for formalizing the world.

The Latest from Our R&D Pipeline: Version 13.2 of Wolfram Language & Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

But it’s also got some “surprise” new dramatic efficiency improvements, and it’s got some first hints of major new areas that we have under development—particularly related to astronomy and celestial mechanics. Introducing Astro Computation. But what’s new now is astronomical computation fully integrated into the system.

Launching Version 13.0 of Wolfram Language + Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

Any integral of an algebraic function can in principle be done in terms of our general DifferentialRoot objects. All the functions in Abramowitz & Stegun are now fully computable in the Wolfram Language. And from the “worst-case” way the interval was computed this now provides a definite theorem. it can: &#10005.
