Descriptive statistics refers to properties of distributions, such as location, dispersion, and shape. The functions described here compute descriptive statistics of lists of ...

The functions described here are among the most commonly used discrete univariate statistical distributions. You can compute their densities, means, variances, and other ...

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 ...

The following is the sequence of steps that Mathematica follows in evaluating an expression like h[e_1,e_2…]. Every time the expression changes, Mathematica effectively ...

You may have noticed that there are two different ways to make assignments in Mathematica: lhs=rhs and lhs:=rhs. The basic difference between these forms is when the ...

MathLM is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. For a detailed list of specific platforms, visit www.wolfram.com/mathematica/features/system-requirements.html. Each ...

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 ...

The library now fully supports the Unicode character encoding forms UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32. Use the following new API functions to put or get Unicode characters to or from ...

Mathematica provides a variety of functions for manipulating strings. Most of these functions are based on viewing strings as a sequence of characters, and many of the ...

Orthogonal polynomials. Legendre polynomials LegendreP[n,x] arise in studies of systems with three-dimensional spherical symmetry. They satisfy the differential equation ...
