Block
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Block[{x, y, ...}, expr] specifies that expr is to be evaluated with local values for the symbols x, y, .... Block[{x = x_0, ...}, expr] defines initial local values for x, ...
BlockRandom[expr] evaluates expr with all pseudorandom generators localized, so that uses of SeedRandom, RandomInteger, and related functions within the evaluation of expr do ...
Clear
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Clear[symbol_1, symbol_2, ...] clears values and definitions for the symbol_i. Clear["form_1", "form_2", ...] clears values and definitions for all symbols whose names match ...
Quiet
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Quiet[expr] evaluates expr "quietly", without actually outputting any messages generated.Quiet[expr, {s_1::t_1, s_2::t_2, ...}] quietens only the specified messages during ...
Which
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Which[test_1, value_1, test_2, value_2, ...] evaluates each of the test_i in turn, returning the value of the value_i corresponding to the first one that yields True.
Xnor
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Xnor[e_1, e_2, ...] is the logical XNOR (not XOR) function. It gives True if an even number of the e_i are True, and the rest are False. It gives False if an odd number of ...
$Pre
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) $Pre is a global variable whose value, if set, is applied to every input expression.
The functions FindMinimum, FindMaximum, and FindRoot have the HoldAll attribute and so have special semantics for evaluation of their arguments. First, the variables are ...
Nand
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Nand[e_1, e_2, ...] is the logical NAND function. It evaluates its arguments in order, giving True immediately if any of them are False, and False if they are all True.
Nor
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Nor[e_1, e_2, ...] is the logical NOR function. It evaluates its arguments in order, giving False immediately if any of them are True, and True if they are all False.
