The unique feature of this compact student's introduction to Mathematica and the Wolfram Language is that it presents concepts in an order that closely follows a standard mathematics curriculum, rather than structure the book along features of the software. As a result, the book provides a brief introduction to those aspects of the Mathematica software program most useful to students. Used as a supplementary text, it will aid in bridging the gap between Mathematica and the mathematics in the course. In addition to its course use, this book will serve as an excellent tutorial for former students
