Our text-book „V.Z. Aladjev, M.L. Shishakov, V.A. Vaganov. Mathematica: Functional and Procedural Programming.– Kindle Press, 2020“ (Link) focuses on a rather important aspect – procedural and functional programming supported by the Mathematica system. This aspect is of particular importance not only for appendices but also above all it is quite important in the creation of the user tools that extend the most frequently used standard tools of the system and/or eliminate its shortcomings, or complement its with the new facilities. Software presented in the book contains a number of useful and effective receptions of the procedural and functional programming in the Mathematica that extend the system software and allow sometimes much more efficiently and easily to program the software for various purposes. Among them there are means that are of interest from the point of view of including of their or their analogs in Mathematica, at the same time they use approaches, rather useful in programming of various applications. In addition, it must be kept in mind that the classification of the presented tools by their appointment in a certain measure has a rather conditional character because these tools can be crossed substantially among themselves by the functionality.
The freeware package MathToolBox containing more 1420 tools is attached to the present book. The MathToolBox not only contains a number of useful procedures and functions, but can serve as a rather useful collection of programming examples using both standard and non–standard techniques of functional–procedural programming. In the future, many MathToolBox means have proven to be quite effective additional tools for programming many problems in Mathematica, both purely theoretical and applied character. The book is oriented on a wide enough circle of the users from computer mathematics systems, researchers, teachers and students of universities for courses of computer science, physics, mathematics, and a lot of other natural disciplines. The book will be of interest also to the specialists of industry and technology which use the computer mathematics systems in own professional activity. At last, the book is a rather useful handbook with fruitful methods on the procedural and functional programming in the Mathematica system. In this context, the package can serve as a certain additional tool of procedural and functional programming, especially useful in the numerous appendices where certain nonstandard evaluations have to accompany programming. At that, the tools presented in the package have a direct relationship to certain principal questions of procedural and functional programming in the Mathematica system, not only for the decision of the applied problems, but, first of all, for creation of software extending frequently used possibilities of the system and/or eliminating their defects, or adding the system with new facilities. The additional tools composing the above package embrace a number of sections of the Mathematica system.
The monograph "Aladjev Victor. Cellular Automata, Mainframes, Maple, Mathematica and Computer Science in Tallinn Research Group.— USA: Kindle Press, 2022.— 150 p. — ISBN 9798447660208", with one degree or another degree of detail, provides an overview of scientific and applied activity directions of Tallinn Research Group throughout its activity during 1970—2022, including Mathematica system. It is worth focusing on the fact that to a large extent the real book is of a pronounced final nature, relating to the activity of the Tallinn Research Group and the associated Baltic branch of the International Academy of Noosphere, whose activity has been rather seriously decreased due to a number of significant enough circumstances since July 2022.
