Winner 2006 Undergraduate Computational Engineering & Sciences Award (Krell Institute)
One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 2005		  
The Maple paper text is essentially identical to the Maple worksheets. The Mathematica text on the CD is a pdf file suitable for printing, and is equivalent to the Maple text, The Fortran text on the CD is a pdf file suitable for printing, and is equivalent of the java text, as much as possible. This introductory text overlaps A Survey of Computational Physics (Landau, Paez, & Bordeianu) to provide computational science/physics materials at all levels of undergraduate curriculum.

Note: The American Journal of Physics review incorrectly stated that the CD was not as advertised; they are publishing an errata. We cannot recommend that review.
