"Interrupting Calculations" describes how you can interrupt a Mathematica computation by pressing appropriate keys on your keyboard. In some cases, you may want to simulate ...

Built into Mathematica are a large number of special characters intended for use in mathematical and other notation. "Listing of Named Characters" gives a complete listing. ...

It is often useful to be able to detect and precisely locate a change in a differential system. For example, with the detection of a singularity or state change, the ...

Extrapolation methods are a class of arbitrary-order methods with automatic order and step-size control. The error estimate comes from computing a solution over an interval ...

ParametricPlot3D[{f_x, f_y, f_z}, {u, u_min, u_max}] produces a three-dimensional space curve parametrized by a variable u which runs from u_min to u_max. ...

CentralMoment[list, r] gives the r\[Null]^th central moment of the elements in list with respect to their mean.CentralMoment[dist, r] gives the r\[Null]^th central moment of ...

LineIntegralConvolutionPlot[{{v_x, v_y}, image}, {x, x_min, x_max}, {y, y_min, y_max}] generates a line integral convolution plot of image convolved with the vector field ...

LogLogPlot[f, {x, x_min, x_max}] generates a log-log plot of f as function of x from x_min to x_max. LogLogPlot[{f_1, f_2, ...}, {x, x_min, x_max}] generates log-log plots of ...

Mathematica allows almost every aspect of sessions to be customized, under full programmatic control.

MomentConvert[mexpr, form] converts the moment expression mexpr to the specified form.
