Mathematica 6.0 notebooks

Mathematica 6.0 uses new tools to bring mathematics to life.  Try Mathematica 6.0.  These notebooks communicate more than the ones above.  Earlier notebooks are in process of being converted to work with 6.0.

MathEverywhere, Inc. has kindly allowed me to use their initialization cells and style sheet.

 

Logarithms.nb
Notebook on logarithm basics and the natural base logarithm (calculus I, review).

LA colFrame.nb
Notebook that covers why matrix columns appear where a matrix hangs its hits (Linear Algebra).

Slice and Accumulate.nb
Supplement for Lesson 2.03 (calculus I).

Transformations.nb
3D parametric formula transformations, Lesson VC.08 (calculus III).

separate variables integral hand example.nb
Hand example of integration method separation of variables (calculus II).


Mathematica 5.2 and earlier notebooks

Grading.nb
This notebook explains just what its name implies. My students must read this notebook.

Start and Getting Help.nb
Where to start and places to go for help.

style_sheet.nb
Have you ever wondered how to use style sheets to simplify your cell formatting? This notebook attempts to help students edit the lesson's style sheets and use them to speed up formatting tasks. This notebook does not cover advanced style sheet methods.

chain_rule.nb
This notebook is all about the chain rule.

Expansions.nb
This notebook is for hand practice of lesson 3.02 expansions.

Parametric.nb
This notebook attempts to make sense of parameterizations and getting a formula for f '[x] when no f[x] is available.

Gauss_Green.nb
This notebook is an attempt at explaining the Gauss-Green formula. 

EulerMethod.nb
This notebook attempts an explanation of the provided code in some lessons as well as generating points by hand. This notebook's primary coverage is on Euler's method for functions. It does touch on usage with parametric equations. 

IntegralPractice.nb
Integration procedures are covered in this notebook. If you're studying for the math230 mastery exam and/or integration handout, then this notebook may really help you.

FlowInterpret.nb
This notebook is a quick explanation of flow-across & flow-along interpretations for different fields with the same path integral value from VC.05. 

IntegratingFactor.nb
This notebook covers the integrating factor question found in math385.

306_ratio test.nb
Attempts to demystify the ratio test in Lesson 3.06 for power series.

Race Track Principle.nb
Notebook works on the Race Track Principle in Lesson 1.07 (calculus I).

derivatives workbook.nb
Derivative hand practice.

Logarithms.nb
Notebook about logarithms, natural base logarithm (calculus I, review).
