Calculus WIZ

Review: I have to disagree with the other reviewer who disliked this product so utterly. I found it valuable for Calculus review using Mathematica. I love Mathematica and I believe the Calculus & Mathematica courses initially offered in 1994 from the Univ. Of Illinois at Urbana-Champagne (they were offered free by the authors way back then) were a great idea to make the study of Calculus very exciting. So I used this product to effectively review.

By the way, it seems the other reviewer is a little prejudicial when he categorizes all business majors in the "for dummies" category.

Review: Recommending this product would be like, recommending some one to waste their hard earned money on buying something totally useless. This product only reaffirms the well known basics any calculus student can understand. The hard unknown problems are not listed at all. I won't recommend this product to anyone. I made the mistake of buying this product and you shouldn't DO IT. Not only is this software incomprehensive, it has some hidden features which require extra payment. After all that, you would atleast expect the product functions properly. NOPE! It crashes the computer and my system requirements are more than adequate. If you ever get a chance to look at some videos made by California Institute of Technology on Trig, Calc Physics, and Calculus. Please tell me about it. They are a great source of help. If anyone has trouble with Calculus with Business Majors, take Calculus for Dummies. If anyone has trouble with Calculus as Engineer Majors, I suggest you ask a teacher for help or hire a tutor. There is no adequate resource for engineers on Calculus except the textbook which is written in GREEK. Doing simple problems is OK! The problem arises when there are difficult problems something past question number #30 Application problems. There needs to be resource that adequately explains hard problems in a comprehensive manner. This software ISN'T ONE OF THEM! Don't tell me I didn't warn you to stay away from this product!

Review: The product makers describe this as an interactive calculus tutorial - which it flat out isn't. It's a homework problem solver. The difference between the product description and what was actually in the package is amazing. I wasted close to sixty bucks on this product. Don't do the same!!!!
