Built on powerful and elegant long-standing principles, the core Mathematica language has been gradually enhanced under tight control over its twenty-year history. Version ...

Widely recognized as the world's most powerful list manipulation language, Mathematica added in Version 6.0 a number of important new functions. Each function was carefully ...

PageBreakWithin is an option for Cell which specifies whether a page break should be allowed within the cell if the notebook that contains the cell is printed.

CellBaseline is an option for Cell which specifies where the baseline of the cell should be assumed to be when it appears inside another cell.

Mathematica encapsulates in a small number of functions vast flexibility in rearranging lists with any structure and any number of elements.

Lists are central constructs in Mathematica, used to represent collections, arrays, sets, and sequences of all kinds. Lists can have any structure and size, and can routinely ...

PadRight[list, n] makes a list of length n by padding list with zeros on the right. PadRight[list, n, x] pads by repeating the element x. PadRight[list, n, {x_1, x_2, ...}] ...

PadLeft[list, n] makes a list of length n by padding list with zeros on the left. PadLeft[list, n, x] pads by repeating the element x. PadLeft[list, n, {x_1, x_2, ...}] pads ...

TextJustification is an option for Cell and Inset which specifies how much lines of text can be stretched in order to make them be the same length.

Mathematica provides a variety of functions for manipulating strings. Most of these functions are based on viewing strings as a sequence of characters, and many of the ...
