Many computations are conveniently specified in terms of applying functions in parallel to many elements in a list. Mathematica provides a suite of elegant functional ...

 

Numerical root finding. NSolve gives you numerical approximations to all the roots of a polynomial equation. You can also use NSolve to solve sets of simultaneous equations ...

In many practical situations it is convenient to consider limits in which a fixed amount of something is concentrated into an infinitesimal region. Ordinary mathematical ...

Subresultants[poly_1, poly_2, var] generates a list of the principal subresultant coefficients of the polynomials poly_1 and poly_2 with respect to the variable var.

 

The primes have been a focal point for investigations of numbers for more than two millennia. Mathematica implements state-of-the-art algorithms for handling both primes and ...

Mathematica 7 represents another major achievement in Mathematica's long history of innovation in mathematics and algorithms. Building on the broad capabilities of ...

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 ...
