Mathematics by Experiment
Plausible Reasoning in the 21st Century
Jonathan Borwein, David Bailey
Résumé
This new approach to mathematics-the utilization of advanced computing technology in mathematical research-is often called experimental mathematics. The computer provides the mathematician with a "laboratory" in which she can perform experiments-analyzing examples, testing out new ideas, or searching for patterns.
This book presents the rationale and historical context of experimental mathematics, and includes a series of examples that best portray the experimental methodology. For more examples and insights, the book, "Experimentation in Mathematics: Computational Paths to Discovery" is a highly recommended companion.
