Function[body] or body & is a pure function. The formal parameters are # (or #1), #2, etc. Function[x, body] is a pure function with a single formal parameter x. ...

Long viewed as an important theoretical idea, functional programming finally became truly convenient and practical with the introduction of Mathematica's symbolic language. ...

There are many functions that are built into Mathematica. This tutorial discusses how you can add your own simple functions to Mathematica. As a first example, consider ...

Unicode: F4A1 Alias: Esc fn Esc. Infix operator with built-in evaluation rules. x  y is by default interpreted as Function[x,y]. x  y  z groups as x  (y  z). \[Function] ...

Plot[f, {x, x_min, x_max}] generates a plot of f as a function of x from x_min to x_max. Plot[{f_1, f_2, ...}, {x, x_min, x_max}] plots several functions f_i.

Basic plotting functions. This plots a graph of sin(x) as a function of x from 0 to 2π. You can plot functions that have singularities. Mathematica will try to choose ...

Long the standard for high-quality function and surface visualization, Mathematica incorporates a host of original numeric, symbolic, and geometric algorithms that automate ...

Defining Functions Functions as Procedures Manipulating Options

Mathematica gives you the power to visualize functions of two variables in multiple ways, including three-dimensional parametric plots, spherical plots, polar plots, and ...

With its core symbolic paradigm and immediate access to sophisticated numerical, symbolic and geometric algorithms, Mathematica is able to provide a uniquely flexible and ...
