Programming Precalculus with Python is designed to help students learn the fundamentals of Python programming and the basics of precalculus within the context of Python programming. The book presents the basic elements of the language, including control structures, list and set operations, built-in math functions, user-defined functions, string manipulations, logical structures, list comprehension, classes, and 2D and 3D plotting.

Opening chapters cover sequences and series, counting and probability, and operations on polynomials. Students learn about systems of equations and matrices, number theory and logic, coordinate geometry, graph features, complex numbers, the fundamental theorem of algebra, and rational functions. Closing chapters focus on exponential and inverse functions, as well as logarithms. Each chapter includes exercises in both precalculus and programming, as well as independent programming projects from diverse fields of mathematics. Sample programs included throughout the book are written in such a way that they are easy for a fledgling programmer to follow and understand.

Providing students with a comprehensive and approachable guide, Programming Precalculus with Python is an ideal resource for Precalculus I and Python programming courses within mathematics departments and programs.

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
