Your question doesn't have a precise answer. The book shows how a newcomer can start to use the language without knowing any functions (using the natural language and Wolfram Alpha). However some knowledge is recommended. I think even advanced users can find funny the examples used. In the book are used about 1000 functions, and the most important: the user will have learnt how to browse to find an appropriate function for his case. Thank you. Guillermo

This option is explained later in the book, for this reason I avoid to use a function until the concept it has not been explained.

In any case supplementary material and corrections (very few it has been necesary) are available at

Dear friend I have run all notebooks included in my book Mathematica Beyond Mathematics in Mathematica 11.3.0. I have updated the Mathematica beyond mathematics (it is necessary to modify only two functions using 11.3). Supplementary materials: http://diarium.usal.es/guillermo/mathematica/

In this occasion I have found very few differences with the previous version. I would like to share these differences not only for my readers but also for all Mathematica users.

a) In Mathematica 11.3 in some occasions it could be necessary to include the WorkingPrecision NIntegrate[…., WorkingPrecision -> 10]

NIntegrate[PDF[NormalDistribution[0.49, 0.02], p]*PDF[BinomialDistribution[3030, p], 1515], {p, 0, 1}, WorkingPrecision -> 10] In Math 11.2 you can avoid to including WorkingPrecision

b) According to Mathematica support:"hanges in Import and Export of XLSX files have been implemented to highly improve performance. ...Our development team has decided to include the legacy functionality of previous versions as well,You can use the legacy importer with SheetsLegacy."

Example (included in my book): Import["bp-statistical-review-of-world-energy-2016-workbook.xlsx", {"SheetsLegacy", "Primary Energy Consumption "}];

c) I have found a problem in Dataset that I hoppe be fixed in a next version. Dataset[EntityValue[EntityClass["Particle", "Lepton"], {"Symbol", "Charge", "Mass"}, "EntityPropertyAssociation"]] (* Note, RowBox and FractionBox in the output if you use Math 11.3.0. *)
