The Mathematica World electronic magazine (on disk, executable/interactive) aims to provide you with the support you need to get the most from Mathematica. Tutorials on aspects of the front-end, kernel, and package functionality guide you interactively through functions that receive only a brief description in documentation coming with Mathematica. Various notebooks illustrate how you can use Mathematica in a broad range of situations. Announcements of new packages, and included packages extend the functionality of Mathematica in specific areas. The News section includes our solutions to problems that have been posed over the previous month through Internet news and mail groups. ______________________________________________________________________ December.
