“ I’m inspired by what you and your students have accomplished. I think the reason that this project is so important is because it’s precisely the kind of deep, active learning project that a student would have an opportunity to carry out at a selective four year school, and our students at CCC are both capable of and deserving of such efforts.”
Quotes from students’ users
"My approach to this exercise was that I first started by going through the lectures on Brightspace and taking notes to reference the presented material. I then went through the textbook and the Sage textbook. The Sage text was particularly helpful in completing this lab assignment, as it covers how to perform the methods discussed in the lectures using Sagemath. Every operation needed to complete this lab assignment was covered in detail, with examples and the correct syntax, which made completing the lab a lot easier."

Quotes from faculty’ users
"I read your book, and I use your book almost every day to teach my students; your book is excellent. SageMath is an extremely valuable resource for any mathematician to know how to use and this book is an excellent source to learn how. It is a comprehensive guide on everything coding with SageMath has to offer, with the online version allowing you to play around with the code and see where your imagination takes you. A key takeaway after reading this book is that, similar to a finite state machine, your output will be affected by your input in anything you do in life."
