Beyond being a simple calculation tool, the computer has driven the birth of new disciplines and revitalized existing branches. Through a journey across cryptology, fractal geometry, and deterministic chaos theory, the author illustrates the substantial changes in mathematical methods and the new possibilities that have opened up. A concise and revealing analysis of the symbiosis between computational power and modern mathematical thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is structured around the central thesis that the computer has not only streamlined calculations but has redefined the very nature of mathematical research.
