Can you recommend some reference books that use software like **MATLAB** and **Mathematica** to deal with the basic topics in 


* *analysis of PDE* (the ones you can find in **Strauss**' book *Partial Differential Equations: An Introduction*)


and 


* *numerical analysis of PDE*?



Books and resources on PDEs that use Mathematica and Matlab
