New book (in German) using Sage

[Norbert Domes]

As far as I know: this is the first German mathematical textbook using Sage.

My translation of the blurb:

New and in-depth approach to computer-oriented mathematics.

This textbook for first-year students provides an expanded introduction to different topics of computer-oriented mathematics. It enables an early and useful activity with computer-oriented methods, ways of thinking and work methodology.

Therefore the book deals with fundamental areas closely related to computer-oriented aspects like graphs, algorithms, recursion, linear algebra, numbers, polynomials and their roots. Based on central mathematical ideas it provides an insight into mathematical modeling, analyzing and algorithmic approach of main mathematical issues.

A special feature of the book is the use of the free available software system Sage which increasingly spreads in research and teaching.

The book is very well suited for a completion of conventional introductory lectures on calculus and linear algebra.
