$MinPrecision gives the minimum number of digits of precision to be allowed in arbitrary-precision numbers.
Simplifying expressions. Mathematica does not automatically simplify an algebraic expression like this. Simplify performs the simplification.
FieldExp[f, n] gives the value of the discrete exponential of n associated with the field f.
Using the latest platform-optimized code, Mathematica not only delivers high-efficiency machine-precision evaluation of elementary functions, but also—using a number of ...
