To run Mathematica from within an external program requires making use of many general features of MathLink. The first issue is how to establish a MathLink connection to ...

The function FindRoot has a Jacobian option; the functions FindMinimum, FindMaximum, and FindFit have a Gradient option; and the "Newton" method has a method option Hessian. ...

MathLink connections between Mathematica sessions. This starts up a link on port number 8000. This connects to the link on port 8000.

When Mathematica transforms an expression such as x+x into 2x, it is treating the variable x in a purely symbolic or formal fashion. In such cases, x is a symbol which can ...

In some cases it is useful to split the differential system into subsystems and solve each subsystem using appropriate integration methods. Recombining the individual ...

Formatting lists as tables and matrices. Here is a list. Grid gives the list typeset in a tabular format.

Algebraic is now available as the newly added built-in Mathematica kernel function AlgebraicNumber. ToCommonField and ToNumberFieldElement are now available as the newly ...
