This loads packages containing some test problems and utility functions. One of the first and simplest methods for solving initial value problems was proposed by Euler: ...

InterpolateRoot[lhs == rhs, {x, x_0, x_1}] searches for a numerical solution to the equation lhs == rhs using x_0 and x_1 as the first two values of x.

RealDigits[x] gives a list of the digits in the approximate real number x, together with the number of digits that are to the left of the decimal point. RealDigits[x, b] ...

With Mathematica's citation management features, you can annotate and add references to research papers written using Mathematica. These features work in conjunction with the ...

Linear programming problems are optimization problems where the objective function and constraints are all linear. Mathematica has a collection of algorithms for solving ...

For minimization problems for which the objective function is a sum of squares, it is often advantageous to use the special structure of the problem. Time and effort can be ...
