Hey /sci/, I'm doing a project in numerical analysis, basically I need to implement a couple of iterative algorithms for numerical equation solving and calculate the convergence rate for those iterations.
Anyway, I'll be doing that in Mathematica, but I've never used Mathematica before. The deadline is closing in and I haven't even started yet (was too busy watching chinese cartoons and ricing my linux desktop).
Any tips on how I can do this as fast as possible? What's the quickest way to learn Mathematica? (I have experience in programming in C)

Make heavy use of the documentation. It has very extensive descriptions of every built-in function, down to the appropriate syntax.

Have you ever used wolfram alpha?
Because that's Mathematica with an input interpreter.
It's pretty simple, and Wolfram has tons of documentation and tutorials for it.

Use Matlab

what numerical methods will you be using? mathematica probably already has an inbuilt function for it
