The Standard Evaluation Procedure (Mathematica Tutorial)

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 (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

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 ...

Some General Notations and Conventions (Mathematica Tutorial)

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 (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

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 (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

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 (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

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, ...
