About this book :-
A Matlab Companion for Multivariable Calculus written by Jeffery Cooper. Multivariable calculus is an essential part of the mathematical education of scientists and engineers. In the past we relied almost entirely on chalk and blackboard, and examples that could be done by hand, to convey the key concepts of the subject. Now the advent of powerful, convenient software makes it imperative to reconsider how we teach multivariable calculus. In my opinion, the greatest impact of software is in the areas of graphics and computation.
Color graphics makes it possible to display curves, surfaces, and solids in two and three dimensions in a way that is both more effective and more engaging for the student. This is especially important for today’s students, who have not had much experience with solid geometry. Color can also be used as a fourth dimension to help locate extreme points, and to display quantities such as temperature, density, and fluid velocity.
Software also allows us to deal seriously with computation. Traditionally there has been an unnatural division of analysis and computation into separate compartments of mathematics. The paper-and-pencil exercises of the typical third-semester calculus text give valuable experience in manipulating symbols, but they are often quite contrived. Problems involving arc length, surface, and volume that can be done by hand are too limited in application and give the unfortunate impression that mathematicians are interested only in clever solutions of special problems and prefer to leave practical problems to engineers.
