Create and Use Rules (Mathematica How To)

Transformation rules in Mathematica let you set local values for symbols, functions, and all other types of expressions. Using rules provides a powerful and extensible method ...

The Secant Method (Mathematica Tutorial)

When derivatives cannot be computed symbolically, "Newton's" method will be used, but with a finite difference approximation to the Jacobian. This can have costs in terms of ...

Using Assumptions (Mathematica Tutorial)

Mathematica normally makes as few assumptions as possible about the objects you ask it to manipulate. This means that the results it gives are as general as possible. But ...
