Calculus
Mathematica TE can do calculus as well as algebra. Here is the derivative of .
In[1]:= D[Tan[x ^ 2], x]
Out[1]=
This is the second derivative.
In[2]:= D[Tan[x ^ 2], {x, 2}]
Out[2]=
This shows the tangent at to the curve .
In[3]:= Plot[{x^3, 12 (x - 2) + 8}, {x,-4, 4}]
Out[3]=
Mathematica TE can evaluate the limits of many functions.
In[4]:= Limit[(1 + 2 / n) ^ n, n -> Infinity]
Out[4]=
Here is an easy integral.
In[5]:= Integrate[ Tan[x], x ]
Out[5]=
The integral of is a little harder.
In[6]:= Integrate[ x^2 Sin[x]^2, x ]
Out[6]=
Differentiating the result gives the original integrand, but in a somewhat different form.
In[7]:= D[ %, x ]
Out[7]=
The Mathematica TE function Simplify uses algebraic and trigonometric identities to simplify the expression, in this case recovering the original form.
In[8]:= Simplify[ % ]
Out[8]=
This finds the power-series expansion of the previous result about the point .
In[9]:= Series[ %, {x, 0, 14} ]
Out[9]=
