In today’s episode we are looking from the dawn of engineering to the modern day, at ‘tools for thinking’. These are the intellectual methods and the physical tools that engineers have used throughout history to work through their ideas and prove viability.

Each advance makes it possible to work with numbers in new ways, and the theories produced makes for more efficient mental labour, allowing for the development of new tools.

Now an innovation is allowing one of most powerful modern computational tools to be used in a way that truly suits the way engineers actually work.
