All textual and graphical forms in Mathematica are ultimately represented in terms of nested collections of boxes. Typically the elements of these boxes correspond to objects ...
In Mathematica's standard notebook interface, you are directly giving input and getting output every time you press Shift+Enter. Although much more rarely needed than in more ...
Lists are widely used in Mathematica, and there are many ways to construct them. Some explicit ways to construct lists. This gives a table of the first five powers of 2.
In many kinds of calculations, you need to set up "arrays" that contain sequences of expressions, each specified by a certain index. One way to implement arrays in ...
Symbol
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Symbol["name"] refers to a symbol with the specified name.
GompertzMakehamDistribution[\[Lambda], \[Xi]] represents a Gompertz distribution with scale parameter \[Lambda] and frailty parameter ...
In Mathematica's unified symbolic framework, graphics are treated just like any other expression—to be displayed, arranged, annotated, or manipulated using any of ...
Ratios
(Built-in Mathematica Symbol) Ratios[list] gives the successive ratios of elements in list. Ratios[list, n] gives the n\[Null]^th iterated ratios of list. Ratios[list, {n_1, n_2, ...}] gives the ...
Mathematica automatically handles both numeric and symbolic matrices, seamlessly switching among large numbers of highly-optimized algorithms. Using many original methods, ...
Using a host of original algorithms developed at Wolfram Research, Mathematica provides powerful functions that automate the process of creating cognitively and aesthetically ...
