Software Reviews of Mathematica 5.2 (Educational Edition)
Customer Review: Not good for analytical calculations.
Summary: 1 Stars
This package is NOT for theoretical physicists.
Just a couple examples.
Sometimes you need to check the result of some simple integral(you may drop<<->> or <> or <<2>>accidently) and you want mathematica to calculate it for you. Guess what? It's unable to perform the SIMPLEST integration in the complex plane. And I'm not talking about trivial sums.
It's impressive with numerical analysis but not as good as...MathLab for instance. Don't waste your money.
Description of Mathematica 5.2 (Educational Edition)
Mathematica seamlessly integrates a numeric and symbolic computational engine, graphics system, programming language, documentation system, and advanced connectivity to other applications. It is this range of capabilities--many world-leading in their own right--that makes Mathematica uniquely capable as a "one-stop shop" for you or your organization's technical work. Uses include: handling complex symbolic calculations that often involve hundreds of thousands or millions of terms; Loading, analyzing, and visualizing data; Solving equations, differential equations, and minimization problems numerically or symbolically; Doing numerical modeling and simulations, ranging from simple control systems to galaxy collisions, financial derivatives, complex biological systems, chemical reactions, environmental impact studies, and magnetic fields in particle accelerators; Producing professional-quality, interactive technical reports or papers for electronic or print distribution; Illustrating mathematical or scientific concepts for students from K-12 to postgraduate levels; Typesetting technical information--for example, for U.S. patents; Giving technical presentations and seminars.Education & Reference Software
