Mathematical Typesetting

Developed at Wolfram Research over nearly 20 years, the Wolfram Language has by far the world's most sophisticated and convenient mathematical typesetting technology. Generalizing the concept of a computer language to allow 2D input, the Wolfram Language allows both interactive and programmatic entry of arbitrarily complex typeset expressions, with publication-quality layout continuously maintained in real time.
