This tutorial shows how to start using Mathematica to solve engineering and scientific problems. We show how Mathematica can be used to generate a rich document that includes both text and code. Some of the topics we cover in this video include:
-Simple calculations
-Cells
-Typesetting
-Palettes
-Using build-in functions
Other videos in this series:
-Getting Started with Mathematica (this video)
-Working with Matrices in Mathematica ( • Working with Matrices ... )
-2D Plotting in Mathematica ( • 2D Plotting in Mathema... )
-3D Plotting in Mathematica ( • 3D Plotting in Mathema... )
We use Mathematica 11.2 but the concepts should be applicable to any modern version of Mathematica.

This is my first time using Mathematica, its ability to solve symbolic equation is amazing, and creates a nice looking document at the end. I could use this at Boeing to create strength check notes!

Thank you for the helpful reintroduction to Mathematica, Dr. Lum! It's been longer than I like to think about...

@AlejandroMartinez-nv9ri 8 ай бұрын

AE501: I have worked with MatLab many times but never Mathematica. When I started at Boeing I was introduced to a tool and was told it was very similar to Mathematica, I can definitely see that now. After viewing this video and the "working with matrices in mathematica" video, I feel like I would prefer Matlab for matrix manipulation, mainly because of the extra steps needed for column manipulation in mathematica. I am definitely going to use it on the homework to get a better feek for it.

One thing that I found helpful for the basic math input was looking at the keyboard shortcuts as well. It's a lot faster to use, for example, CTRL+7 to create an overheat than it is to click on the palette. AE501

@ChristopherLum 8 ай бұрын

Good point, most of the commands have keyboard shortcuts and you can get away without ever needing to take your fingers off the keyboard. FYI, in the future, can you include the string 'AE501' in your comments so they get picked up by my end of the quarter analysis system, thanks!
