The way modules work in Mathematica is basically very simple. Every time any module is used, a new symbol is created to represent each of its local variables. The new symbol ...

This tutorial describes the principles behind Dynamic, DynamicModule, and related functions, and goes into detail about how they interact with each other and with the rest of ...

Mathematica's unique symbolic architecture makes it easy to add toolbars with any possible appearance and action to a Mathematica notebook. The ruler is a toolbar used to set ...

Palettes can be configured to remember their previous states across front end sessions. This is useful for palettes containing multiple expandable sections, tab views, ...

Even with "Newton methods" where the local model is based on the actual Hessian, unless you are close to a root or minimum, the model step may not bring you any closer to the ...

The functions defined in Music` allow you to make conversions between cents and hertz, and play scales in one of the common tuning systems, or in a user-specified tuning ...

In any interactive session, Mathematica effectively operates in a loop. It waits for your input, processes the input, prints the result, then goes back to waiting for input ...

ExponentialDistribution[\[Lambda]] represents an exponential distribution with scale inversely proportional to parameter \[Lambda].

BSplineCurve[{pt_1, pt_2, ...}] is a graphics primitive that represents a non-uniform rational B-spline curve with control points pt_i.

This package provides an interactive tool for investigating the solutions of differential equations as well as other types of equations that have solutions that can be viewed ...
