Controlling Numerical Evaluation (Mathematica Tutorial)

Attributes for controlling numerical evaluation. Usually N goes inside functions and gets applied to each of their arguments. This tells Mathematica not to apply N to the ...

ExponentialFamily (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

ExponentialFamily is an option for GeneralizedLinearModelFit that specifies the exponential family for the model.

Your First Mathematica Calculations (Mathematica Tutorial)

Type 2+2 and then press Shift+Enter (hold down the Shift key and press Enter) to tell Mathematica to evaluate your input. Note that labels are added automatically, and output ...

Linear IVPs and BVPs (Mathematica Tutorial)

To begin, consider an initial value problem for a linear first-order ODE. This is a linear first-order ODE. Notice that the general solution is a linear function of the ...

ZernikeR (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

ZernikeR[n, m, r] gives the radial Zernike polynomial R_n^m(r).

Equations with Non-Rational Coefficients (Mathematica Tutorial)

The ODEs that arise in practical applications often have non-rational coefficients. In such cases, DSolve attempts to convert the equation into one with rational coefficients ...

The Main Loop (Mathematica Tutorial)

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 ...

Monitoring and Selecting Algorithms (Mathematica Tutorial)

Functions in Mathematica are carefully set up so that you normally do not have to know how they work inside. But particularly for numerical functions that use iterative ...

False (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

False is the symbol for the Boolean value false.

LinkCreate (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

LinkCreate["name"] creates a MathLink link with the specified name for another program to connect to. LinkCreate[] creates a MathLink link and picks an unused name for the ...
