FeedbackType is an option for some control system functions that specifies the feedback type.

SawtoothWave[x] gives a sawtooth wave that varies from 0 to 1 with unit period.SawtoothWave[{min, max}, x] gives a sawtooth wave that varies from min to max with unit period.

StartingStepSize is an option to NDSolve and related functions that specifies the initial step size to use in trying to generate results.

All of the functionality in Graphics`PlotField3D` has been added to the built-in Mathematica kernel.

NDSolve uses norms of error estimates to determine when solutions satisfy error tolerances. In nearly all cases the norm has been weighted, or scaled, such that it is less ...
