VectorPlot (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

VectorPlot[{v_x, v_y}, {x, x_min, x_max}, {y, y_min, y_max}] generates a vector plot of the vector field {v_x, v_y} as a function of x and y. VectorPlot[{{v_x, v_y}, {w_x, ...

SymplecticPartitionedRungeKutta Method ... (Mathematica Tutorial)

When numerically solving Hamiltonian dynamical systems it is advantageous if the numerical method yields a symplectic map. If the Hamiltonian can be written in separable ...

Tracing Evaluation (Mathematica Tutorial)

The standard way in which Mathematica works is to take any expression you give as input, evaluate the expression completely, and then return the result. When you are trying ...
