Mathematica includes a very large collection of mathematical functions. "Mathematical Functions" gives the complete list. Here are a few of the common ones. Some common ...

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 ...

Mathematica treats equations as logical statements. If you type in an equation like x^2+3x==2, Mathematica interprets this as a logical statement which asserts that x^2+3x is ...

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 ...

When you install a MathLink-compatible external program using Install, the program is set up to behave somewhat like a simplified Mathematica kernel. Every time you call a ...

The standard front end interface, as discussed in "Using a Notebook Interface", is appropriate for most users' purposes. In some cases, however, you may not need to use the ...

JDBCDriver[args] specifies the configuration for connecting to a database produced by a specific vendor.

SQLResultSetCurrent[rs] reads the current row from a result set.

RandomGraph[{n, m}] gives a pseudorandom graph with n vertices and m edges.RandomGraph[{n, m}, k] gives a list of k pseudorandom graphs.RandomGraph[gdist, ...] samples from ...

Building large software systems in Mathematica should follow the general principles that apply to building any large software system. The details may be unique to Mathematica ...
