Mathematica technical seminar on Wednesday

Purdue's Wolfram Research representative, Justin Smith, will be on campus Wednesday, September 23 to give a technical talk on Mathematica 7. The seminar will be given 100% in Mathematica and will show useful teaching and research examples for the physical sciences. Ideas for creating universal examples in Mathematica that can be used by colleagues or students with no prior Mathematica experience will be a central theme.

The content will help users get started with the Mathematica language and workflow. Since there is a large amount of new functionality in Version 7, most intermediate and advanced users who attend these talks report learning quite a bit as well. Attendees will receive an electronic copy of the examples, which can be adapted to individual projects.

Students are also welcome.

Meeting time and location:

Wednesday, September 23
10:00 - 11:00 a.m.
FREH 2-1 conference room
