Differential Equations and Linear Algebra, 4th Edition
by C. Henry Edwards, David E. Penney, David T. Calvis, David Calvis
Preface
The evolution of the present text is based on experience teaching introductory differential equations and linear algebra with an emphasis on conceptual ideas and the use of applications and projects to involve students in active problem-solving experiences. Technical computing environments like Maple, Mathematica, Matlab, and Python are widely available and are now used extensively by practicing engineers and scientists. This change in professional practice motivates a shift from the traditional concentration on manual symbolic methods to coverage also of qualitative and computer-based methods that employ numerical computation and graphical visualization to develop greater conceptual understanding. A bonus of this more comprehensive approach ...
