All expressions in Mathematica are ultimately built from a small number of distinct types of atomic elements.

"Manipulating Elements of Lists" shows how you can pick out elements of lists based on their positions. Often, however, you will need to select elements based not on where ...

In an expression like f[{a,b,c}] you are giving a list as the argument to a function. Often you need instead to apply a function directly to the elements of a list, rather ...

In doing calculations, it is often convenient to collect together several objects, and treat them as a single entity. Lists give you a way to make collections of objects in ...

Lists are very important and general structures in Mathematica. They allow you to treat collections of all kinds of objects as a single entity. There are many ways to ...

Nested lists are lists within a list; they are the principal structure for data in Mathematica and allow for high-dimension arrays and ragged datasets as well as common uses ...

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.

Lists are central constructs in Mathematica that are used to represent collections, arrays, sets, and sequences of all kinds. Well over a thousand built-in functions ...

Mathematica includes many powerful operations for working with lists. It is often desirable to map a function onto each individual element in a list. While listable functions ...

Mathematica can be used to make plots of functions. You give Mathematica a function, and it builds up a curve or surface by evaluating the function at many different points. ...
