Building on the concept of symbolic data description, Mathematica 6.0 introduced the major new "elements" framework for handling import and export of data, in nearly a ...

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 ...

Mathematica 8 introduces interactive content delivered by Wolfram|Alpha directly into your documents. Additionally, Mathematica 8 extends the existing set of interface ...

When building an initial statistical model, you may not have a good idea of what parametric distribution family it should come from. Nonparametric distributions make very few ...

Mathematica provides a convenient collection of platform-independent functions for manipulating names of files and directories. These functions can also be used to assemble ...

Permutations are among the most basic elements of discrete mathematics. They can be used to represent discrete groups of transformations and in particular play a key role in ...

Factoring a quadratic polynomial in one variable is straightforward. But Mathematica routinely factors degree-100 polynomials in 3 variables—by making use of a tower of ...

Mathematica can import from a variety of file formats commonly used in physics, astronomy, meteorology, chemistry, biology, medicine, and physiology.

The flexibility of Mathematica's symbolic architecture is reflected in its rich collection of carefully defined constructs for localization and modularization. The use of ...

Mathematica supports state-of-the-art sound generation, providing both arbitrary waveform synthesis from functions and data, and symbolic note-based MIDI-style sound ...
