Mathematica can be used to make plots of functions. You give Mathematica a function, and it builds up a curve or surface by evaluating the function at many different points. ...

When fitting models to data, it is often useful to analyze how well the model fits the data and how well the fitting meets the assumptions of the model. For a number of ...

ElementData["name", " property"] gives the value of the specified property for the chemical element " name".ElementData[n, " property"] gives the specified property for the ...

ColorFunction is an option for graphics functions that specifies a function to apply to determine colors of elements.

The hierarchy of levels at which options can be set. Here is a notebook containing three cells. This is what happens when the setting CellFrame->True is made specifically for ...

FittedModel[...] represents the symbolic fitted model obtained from functions like LinearModelFit.

Importing and exporting lists and tables of data. This exports a list of data to the file out1. Here are the contents of the file.

Evaluating integrals is much more difficult than evaluating derivatives. For derivatives, there is a systematic procedure based on the chain rule that effectively allows any ...

In many kinds of numerical computations, it is convenient to introduce approximate functions. Approximate functions can be thought of as generalizations of ordinary ...

Built into Mathematica are state-of-the-art constrained nonlinear fitting capabilities, conveniently accessed with models given directly in symbolic form. Mathematica also ...
