Naming and Finding Files (Mathematica Tutorial)

The precise details of the naming of files differ from one computer system to another. Nevertheless, Mathematica provides some fairly general mechanisms that work on all ...

Cellular Automata (Mathematica Tutorial)

Cellular automata provide a convenient way to represent many kinds of systems in which the values of cells in an array are updated in discrete steps according to a local ...

ListDensityPlot (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

ListDensityPlot[array] generates a smooth density plot from an array of values. ListDensityPlot[{{x_1, y_1, f_1}, {x_2, y_2, f_2}, ...}] generates a density plot with values ...
