Listing of Named Characters (Mathematica Guide)

Mathematica provides systemwide support for a large number of special characters. Each character has a name and a number of shortcut aliases. They are fully supported by the ...

LogLinearPlot (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

LogLinearPlot[f, {x, x_min, x_max}] generates a log-linear plot of f as a function of x from x_min to x_max. LogLinearPlot[{f_1, f_2, ...}, {x, x_min, x_max}] generates ...

Stiffness Detection (Mathematica Tutorial)

Many differential equations exhibit some form of stiffness, which restricts the step size and hence effectiveness of explicit solution methods. A number of implicit methods ...

IndependentEdgeSetQ (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

IndependentEdgeSetQ[g, elist] yields True if the edge list elist is an independent edge set of the graph g, and False otherwise.

Computer Arithmetic Package (Computer Arithmetic Package Tutorial)

The arithmetic used by Mathematica is a mixture of variable-precision software arithmetic and whatever is provided by the manufacturer of the floating-point hardware (or the ...
