From the Back Cover

Introduction to Programming with Mathematica is designed to teach Mathematica programming to scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and computer scientists so that they can fully utilize Mathematica for their work in research or education. No prior familiarity with Mathematica or programming is assumed. The text can be used either for individual study by students and professionals or in a Mathematica-related university course. The second edition of the book and diskette contains a number of new features: a new chapter on Applications (Chapter 11), additional material on packages, and more exercises throughout. Solutions to the exercises are provided both in the book and on the accompanying diskette.
