Abstract
Ready access to computing power through APL opens new avenues
for mathematical experimentation and new strategies for developing concepts
in the teaching of basic engineering mathematics. It is argued that the
effective use of APL implies re-structuring of the curriculum and a revision
of examination procedures.
