A Primer on Scientific Programming with Python (5th ed.)
While teaching, computers have become a very useful tool. For mathematics in particular, the analysis is often used and illustrated by actually computing something, an equation that can be solved analytically or numerically, integrals and derivatives can be evaluated, models for physical, chemical, or biological systems are used for simulations, etc. Popular languages for symbolic computing are maple and mathematica, and when it it becomes numerical, certainly matlab, and for more advanced problems one may use fortran, C, or any of its variants and there are many other languages around that are used for a first course in computer programming, although to all of them are equally suitable for mathematical
