Opis

R can be used consistently in the college mathematics classroom. We no longer have to limit ourselves to ``nice'' functions in calculus classes. We can require reports and homework with graphs. We can do simulations and experiments. R can be useful for student projects, for creating graphics for teaching, as well as for scholarly work.
