BoxOrientation is an option for BoxWhiskerPlot which specifies the orientation of the boxes.

The Part function allows you to access specific parts of Mathematica expressions. But particularly when your expressions have fairly uniform structure, it is often convenient ...

You can manipulate lists of transformation rules in Mathematica just like other symbolic expressions. It is common to assign a name to a rule or set of rules. This assigns ...

Type the symbol that will have the superscript. Type x. Create a superscript by pressing the Control key and the 6 key at the same time.

"Interrupting Calculations" describes how you can interrupt a Mathematica computation by pressing appropriate keys on your keyboard. In some cases, you may want to simulate ...

Xnor[e_1, e_2, ...] is the logical XNOR (not XOR) function. It gives True if an even number of the e_i are True, and the rest are False. It gives False if an odd number of ...

DSolve can be used for finding the general solution to a differential equation or system of differential equations. The general solution gives information about the structure ...

BesselYZero[n, k] represents the k\[Null]^th zero of the Bessel function of the second kind Y_n (x).BesselYZero[n, k, x_0] represents the k\[Null]^th zero greater than x_0.

Unless f is a flat function, a pattern like f[x_,y_] stands only for instances of the function with exactly two arguments. Sometimes you need to set up patterns that can ...

Pure functions. When you use functional operations such as Nest and Map, you always have to specify a function to apply. In all the examples above, we have used the "name" of ...
