Here the standard procedure used by Mathematica to evaluate expressions is described. This procedure is the one followed for most kinds of expression. There are, however, ...
NotebookApply[notebook, data] writes data into a notebook at the current selection, replacing the first selection placeholder in data by the current selection, and then ...
The names of built-in functions follow some general guidelines. The main expression or object on which a built-in function acts is usually given as the first argument to the ...
BeginPackage["context`"] makes context` and System` the only active contexts. BeginPackage["context`", {"need_1`", "need_2`", ...}] calls Needs on the need_i.
Compile
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Compile[{x_1, x_2, ...}, expr] creates a compiled function that evaluates expr assuming numerical values of the x_i. Compile[{{x_1, t_1}, ...}, expr] assumes that x_i is of a ...
EndPackage[] restores $Context and $ContextPath to their values before the preceding BeginPackage, and prepends the current context to the list $ContextPath.
BarnesG
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) BarnesG[z] gives the Barnes G-function G(z).
Clip
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Clip[x] gives x clipped to be between -1 and +1. Clip[x, {min, max}] gives x for min <= x <= max, min for x < min and max for x > max. Clip[x, {min, max}, {v_min, v_max}] ...
ArgMax
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) ArgMax[f, x] gives a position x_max at which f is maximized.ArgMax[f, {x, y, ...}] gives a position {x_max, y_max, ...} at which f is maximized.ArgMax[{f, cons}, {x, y, ...}] ...
Piecewise[{{val_1, cond_1}, {val_2, cond_2}, ...}] represents a piecewise function with values val_i in the regions defined by the conditions cond_i. Piecewise[{{val_1, ...
