## What it is
Companion code repository for the book 'A Programmer's Introduction to Mathematics' by Jeremy Kun, containing Python implementations of applications from each chapter. It serves as a hands-on learning resource for programmers studying mathematical concepts.

## Use cases
- learn math concepts through code examples
- study mathematics as a programmer
- run chapter-by-chapter Python implementations from the book
- explore applied math like linear algebra and statistics in Python
- supplement self-study of the pimbook book

## When to choose
- you are reading or planning to read A Programmer's Introduction to Mathematics
- you want runnable Python examples of mathematical techniques
- you learn best by experimenting with code alongside theory

## When to avoid
- you need a production math library like NumPy or SciPy
- you want a standalone course without the accompanying book
- you need maintained, feature-complete mathematical software

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: math, data-science
- domain: mathematics, education, tutorials
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: book-companion-code, mathematics-for-programmers, educational-examples
