Abstract

Many mathematicians consider programming as a skill that is completely irrelevant to mathematics. However, when looking at mathematics, we may notice that working in mathematics requires many activities that are not available in visual CAS. For instance, while solving mathematical problems, we have to explore algorithms, use recursive functions, or create complex constructions in 2D or 3D geometry. All these activities consist of many steps and their nature resembles writing a program. These kinds of activities can be practiced if we use a computer program where a programming language is available. This is the point where you will appreciate MuPAD.
