Graphs and networks are all around us including technological networks (the internet, power grids, telephone networks, transportation networks, ...), social networks (social ...

AbsoluteTiming[expr] evaluates expr, returning a list of the absolute number of seconds in real time that have elapsed, together with the result obtained.

CompilationOptions is an option for Compile that specifies settings for the compilation process.

Modulus -> n is an option that can be given in certain algebraic functions to specify that integers should be treated modulo n.

Building on the concept of symbolic data description, Mathematica 6.0 introduced the major new "elements" framework for handling import and export of data, in nearly a ...
