Mathematica handles both integers and real numbers with any number of digits, automatically tagging numerical precision when appropriate. Mathematica internally uses several ...

RiccatiSolve[{a, b}, {q, r}] gives the matrix x that is the stabilizing solution of the continuous algebraic Riccati equation ConjugateTranspose[a].x + x.a - ...

TrigFactor[expr] factors trigonometric functions in expr.

Mathematica normally assumes that all your variables are global. This means that every time you use a name like x, Mathematica normally assumes that you are referring to the ...

FixedPoint[f, expr] starts with expr, then applies f repeatedly until the result no longer changes.

Descriptive statistics refers to properties of distributions, such as location, dispersion, and shape. The functions described here compute descriptive statistics of lists of ...

Mathematica contains some powerful primitives for making structural changes to expressions. You can use these primitives both to implement mathematical properties such as ...

Im[z] gives the imaginary part of the complex number z.

Mathematica uses its symbolic architecture to provide a convenient modular framework for generating and managing messages, both in programs and interactive sessions.

Building on its broad strengths in mathematics in general, and in special functions in particular, Mathematica provides a unique level of support for multiplicative number ...
