BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL
Method
Method
is an option for various algorithm-intensive functions that specifies what internal methods they should use.
- Typical settings include:
-
| Automatic | pick the method automatically |
| "name" | use the method with the specified name |
| {"name",opt1->val1,...} | use the specified method with particular options |
| {"name1",Method->{"name2",...}} | use a method and a submethod |
| {opt1->val1,opt2->val2,...} | give options for methods |
- With the default setting Method->Automatic, Mathematica will automatically try to pick the best method for a particular computation.
Find a nonlinear fit for exponential decay using a quasi-Newton method:
| Out[3]= |  |
Solve a differential equation using an explicit Runge-Kutta method:
| Out[1]= |  |
Plot the solution and its derivative:
| Out[2]= |  |
