Function[body] or body & is a pure function. The formal parameters are # (or #1), #2, etc. Function[x, body] is a pure function with a single formal parameter x. ...

Pane[expr] displays as a pane containing expr. Pane[expr, w] makes the pane be w printer's points wide, linewrapping the contents if necessary.Pane[expr, {w, h}] makes the ...

Functions that are specified by simple algebraic formulas tend to be such that when their input is changed only slightly, their output also changes only slightly. But ...

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 ...

A Mathematica script is simply a file containing Mathematica commands that you would normally evaluate sequentially in a Mathematica session. Writing a script is useful if ...

NDSolve uses norms of error estimates to determine when solutions satisfy error tolerances. In nearly all cases the norm has been weighted, or scaled, such that it is less ...

The Mathematica side of a MathLink connection is set up to work exactly the same on all computer systems. But inevitably there are differences between external programs on ...

Mathematica normally makes as few assumptions as possible about the objects you ask it to manipulate. This means that the results it gives are as general as possible. But ...
