In many practical situations it is convenient to consider limits in which a fixed amount of something is concentrated into an infinitesimal region. Ordinary mathematical ...

You can ask for information about any object, whether it is built into Mathematica, has been read in from a Mathematica package, or has been introduced by you. Ways to get ...

This document describes how to compile and run MathLink programs written in the C language on Linux systems. ("MathLink and External Program Communication" describes how to ...

When you define a complicated function, you will often want to let some of the arguments of the function be "optional". If you do not give those arguments explicitly, you ...

The built-in functions of Mathematica implement a very large number of algorithms from computer science and mathematics. Some of these algorithms are fairly old, but the vast ...

If the front end activation dialog box appears when you launch Mathematica, either Mathematica could not locate the mathpass file or there was no valid password in the ...

DensityPlot[f, {x, x_min, x_max}, {y, y_min, y_max}] makes a density plot of f as a function of x and y.

One significant advantage Mathematica provides is that it can symbolically compute derivatives. This means that when you specify Method->"Newton" and the function is ...

BindEvent[name | {target, name} | {target, name, filter}, object | script | call, ...] binds an event from one object to a listener or to a script.

Cosh[z] gives the hyperbolic cosine of z.
