You will encounter nested lists if you use matrices or generate multidimensional arrays and tables. Mathematica provides many functions for handling such lists. A few ...
Attributes[symbol] gives the list of attributes for a symbol.
Mesh
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Mesh is an option for Plot3D, DensityPlot, and other plotting functions that specifies what mesh should be drawn.
Specularity[s] is a graphics directive which specifies that surfaces of 3D graphics objects which follow are to be taken to have specularity s. Specularity[s, n] uses ...
SquareFreeQ[expr] gives True if expr is a square-free polynomial or number, and False otherwise.SquareFreeQ[expr, vars] gives True if expr is square free with respect to the ...
TranslationTransform[v] gives a TransformationFunction that represents translation of points by a vector v.
In doing numerical operations like NDSolve and NMinimize, Mathematica by default uses machine numbers. But by setting the option WorkingPrecision->n you can tell it to use ...
Just as Mathematica allows you to define how expressions should be evaluated, so also it allows you to define how expressions should be formatted for output. The basic idea ...
Low-level functions for converting between expressions and boxes. MakeBoxes generates boxes without evaluating its input. MakeExpression interprets boxes but uses ...
InterpolatingPolynomial[{f_1, f_2, ...}, x] constructs an interpolating polynomial in x which reproduces the function values f_i at successive integer values 1, 2, ... of x. ...
