A foundational idea in Mathematica is that all expressions—whatever they may represent—ultimately have a uniform tree-like structure.

Just as normal and stable distributions are natural limit distributions when considering linear combinations such as means of independent variables, extreme value ...

Using a variety of state-of-the-art methods, Mathematica provides immediate functions for detecting and extracting features in images and other arrays of data. Mathematica ...

Traditional procedural programming languages typically require programmers to define an explicit "flow of control" at every stage in their programs. Mathematica provides ...

Mathematica allows full control of fonts, not only in ordinary text but also in typeset structures, graphics, and user interface elements. All features of fonts can be ...

Mathematica allows any front end command to be executed programmatically from within the kernel by sending an appropriate front end token. There are tokens for all standard ...

Long used in its simplest form in mathematics, functional iteration is an elegant way to represent repeated operations. Mathematica's symbolic architecture makes powerful ...

 

Mathematica transparently works with complex variables throughout, not only numerically, but also symbolically—often relying on original results to handle intricate branch ...

Mathematica's unique structure allows a generalized notion of input, in which not only ordinary text, but also typeset structures, diagrams, graphics, control objects and ...
