DivideBy (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

x /= c divides x by c and returns the new value of x.

Extreme Value Distributions (Mathematica Guide)

Just as normal and stable distributions are natural limit distributions when considering linear combinations such as means of independent variables, extreme value ...

Multinomial (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

Multinomial[n_1, n_2, ...] gives the multinomial coefficient (n_1 + n_2 + ...)!/(n_1! n_2! ...).

SolveAlways (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

SolveAlways[eqns, vars] gives the values of parameters that make the equations eqns valid for all values of the variables vars.

Through (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

Through[p[f_1, f_2][x]] gives p[f_1[x], f_2[x]]. Through[expr, h] performs the transformation wherever h occurs in the head of expr.
