Power Computing with CalculationCenter

Even though you can use it as easily as a calculator, CalculationCenter gives you access to immense computational power.

  • This creates a 100 × 100 matrix of random numbers. The semicolon at the end tells CalculationCenter not to display the matrix.

  • In[1]:=

  • On most computers it takes CalculationCenter less than a second to compute all the eigenvalues of the matrix and plot them.

  • In[2]:=

    CalculationCenter can handle numbers of any size. On most computers CalculationCenter computes the factorial of 1000 in less than a second.

    In[3]:=

    Out[3]=

  • CalculationCenter routinely handles algebraic calculations that would have taken years by hand. Here is a polynomial factoring problem.

  • In[4]:=

    Out[4]=

  • CalculationCenter calls on sophisticated algorithms for simplifying formulas. % stands for the previous result.

  • In[5]:=

    Out[5]=
