Everything that Mathematica does can be thought of as derived from its ability to apply general transformation rules to arbitrary symbolic expressions. The Mathematica ...

Files and pipes are both examples of general Mathematica objects known as streams. A stream in Mathematica is a source of input or output. There are many operations that you ...

LinearOffsetFunction is an option for linear and generalized linear model fitting functions that specifies a component for the model that is to be assumed known.

Permutations are basic elements in algebra. They have a natural non-commutative product (as matrices do as well), and hence can encode highly nontrivial structures in a ...

NumberFieldNormRepresentatives[a, m] gives a list of representatives of classes of algebraic integers of norm \[PlusMinus]m in the field \[DoubleStruckCapitalQ][a] generated ...

Converting between symbols and their names. Here is the symbol x. Its name is a string.

Mathematica can handle numbers of essentially unlimited length, in any base, using state-of-the-art platform-optimized algorithms, including several developed at Wolfram ...

As with integers, operations related to division are key to many computations with polynomials. Mathematica includes not only highly optimized univariate polynomial-division ...

Generic tabular data. Stores numerical and textual information, formatted as a table. Supports user-defined field and record separators, field delimiters, currency tokens, ...

VectorScale is an option to VectorPlot, ListVectorPlot, and related functions that determines the length and arrowhead size of field vectors that are drawn.
