Description
This essay discusses the recent trend of using computers in mathematics, and how they have revolutionized the field. The author provides examples of various mathematical problems that can be solved using computers, and how they have helped to advance the field.
The last twenty years have been witness to a fundamental shift in the way mathematics is practiced. With the continued advance of computing power and accessibility, the view that real mathematicians don't compute no longer has any traction for a newer generation of mathematicians that can really take advantage of computer-aided research, especially given the scope and availability of modern computational packages such as Maple, Mathematica, and MATLAB. The authors provide a coherent variety of accessible examples of modern mathematics subjects in which intelligent computing plays a significant role.
