Although the PDEs and systems of PDEs I have encountered have not been overly complicated, Mathematica is able to solve them in closed form most of the time. While not a "specialised" CAS for PDEs/SDEs, it gave me the closed form solutions I was looking for.</p> <p><a href="http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/DSolveIntroductionToPDEs.html" rel="nofollow">This</a> link may be useful in terms of gauging what you can do.</p> http://mathoverflow.net/questions/2238/learning-latex-properly/2263#2263 Answer by nicktrav for Learning LaTeX properly nicktrav 2009-10-24T08:29:30Z 2009-10-24T08:29:30Z <p>One of my first year undergraduate professors put me onto this: <a href="http://tobi.oetiker.ch/lshort/lshort.pdf" rel="nofollow">The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX</a>.</p> <p>I haven't had the need to typeset anything serious yet (I'm only an undergraduate), but I found it was a good place to start.</p>
