Accessing Algorithms in Mathematica

Whenever you use Mathematica, you are accessing the world's largest collection of computational algorithms.

Mathematica automatically chooses appropriate algorithms for each computation.




Mathematica uses state-of-the-art algorithms for factoring integers. The result is given as a list of factors and exponents.


This generates a two-dimensional table corresponding to a matrix.


This displays the table in matrix form.


This computes the null space of the matrix.


Mathematica can solve differential equations both symbolically and numerically.

Here Mathematica solves a nonlinear differential equation numerically. The answer is an interpolating function which implicitly represents the whole solution.


Here is a parametric plot of the solution. The /. tells Mathematica to substitute the solution for x.
