In Mathematica, if you write xy, the software will think you mean a variable called xy, and not the product of x and y. However, you can write either 2x or 2 x for 2 times x, but not x2. It is probably best to use the asterisk ( ) for multiplication rather than a space in input statements. Watch for the use of the blank space in output statements. Complex arithmetic is done automatically, using the capital letter I for. Several constants are available by using symbols Pi, E, I, Infinity, and Degree stand for n,e,i =, oo, and... [Pg.71]
