The hypergeometric functions play a unifying role in mathematical analysis since many important functions, such as the Bessel functions and Legendre functions, are special ...

RowReduce[m] gives the row-reduced form of the matrix m.

MatrixPlot[m] generates a plot that gives a visual representation of the values of elements in a matrix.

Eliminate[eqns, vars] eliminates variables between a set of simultaneous equations.

When you make a definition in the form f[args]=rhs or f[args]:=rhs, Mathematica associates your definition with the object f. This means, for example, that such definitions ...

UnsetShared[s_1, s_2, ...] stops the sharing of the variables or functions s_i among parallel kernels.UnsetShared[patt] stops the sharing of all variables and functions whose ...

The functions FindMinimum, FindMaximum, and FindRoot have the HoldAll attribute and so have special semantics for evaluation of their arguments. First, the variables are ...

The ability to generate pseudorandom numbers is important for simulating events, estimating probabilities and other quantities, making randomized assignments or selections, ...

It is always a good idea to give variables and functions names that are as explicit as possible. Sometimes, however, such names may get inconveniently long. In Mathematica, ...

TransformedDistribution[expr, x \[Distributed] dist] represents the transformed distribution of expr where the random variable x follows the distribution ...
