Product Description Iterative Algebra and Dynamic Modeling links together the use of technology (Excel, Stella) and modern mathematical techniques to explore the interaction of algebra (at the precalculus level) with computer and graphing calculator technology. The book will find use in a variety of college courses, and also in enrichment courses at the high school level. | ||

Useful bite-sized problems This is aimed at the high school level but does an amazingly good job explaining dynamic modeling, difference equations, and scalar contractions at that level. This is good for building intuition since there are a lot of bite-sized problems. The pure mathematical content could be compressed into a book about one-third the size. The author makes interesting connections between classical Greek mathematics and iterative algebra. | ||
