Opis

This revised and updated second edition maintains the content and spirit of the first edition and includes a new chapter, "Recent Experiences," that provides examples of experimental mathematics that have come to light since the publication of the first edition in 2003. For more examples and insights, Experimentation in Mathematics: Computational Paths to Discovery is a highly recommended companion.
