Sequences of Operations (Mathematica Tutorial)

In doing a calculation with Mathematica, you usually go through a sequence of steps. If you want to, you can do each step on a separate line. Often, however, you will find it ...

The Main Loop (Mathematica Tutorial)

In any interactive session, Mathematica effectively operates in a loop. It waits for your input, processes the input, prints the result, then goes back to waiting for input ...

ParallelMap (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

ParallelMap[f, expr] applies f in parallel to each element on the first level in expr.ParallelMap[f, expr, levelspec] applies f in parallel to parts of expr specified by ...

Partition (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

Partition[list, n] partitions list into non-overlapping sublists of length n. Partition[list, n, d] generates sublists with offset d. Partition[list, {n_1, n_2, ...}] ...

MomentGeneratingFunction (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

MomentGeneratingFunction[dist, t] gives the moment generating function for the symbolic distribution dist as a function of the variable t. MomentGeneratingFunction[dist, ...

Naming and Finding Files (Mathematica Tutorial)

The precise details of the naming of files differ from one computer system to another. Nevertheless, Mathematica provides some fairly general mechanisms that work on all ...

String Patterns (Mathematica Tutorial)

An important feature of string manipulation functions like StringReplace is that they handle not only literal strings but also patterns for collections of strings. This ...
