ExponentStep is an option for NumberForm and related functions that determines in what steps exponents are taken to increase when scientific notation is used.

ReleaseHold (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

ReleaseHold[expr] removes Hold, HoldForm, HoldPattern, and HoldComplete in expr.

LevyDistribution (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

LevyDistribution[\[Mu], \[Sigma]] represents a Lévy distribution with location parameter \[Mu] and dispersion parameter \[Sigma].

InverseChiSquareDistribution (Built-in Mathematica Symbol)

InverseChiSquareDistribution[\[Nu]] represents an inverse \[Chi]^2 distribution with \[Nu] degrees of freedom.InverseChiSquareDistribution[\[Nu], \[Xi]] represents a scaled ...

Graphics`MultipleListPlot` (Mathematica Compatibility Information)

MultipleListPlot is replaced by ListPlot and ListLinePlot, which now accept multiple sets of data. Dashing[{Dot,Dash,LongDash}] is replaced with ...

JacobianMatrix (Vector Analysis Package Symbol)

JacobianMatrix[pt] gives the Jacobian matrix of the transformation from the default coordinate system to the Cartesian coordinate system at the point pt. JacobianMatrix[pt, ...

PowerListQ (Finite Fields Package Symbol)

PowerListQ[f] gives True if the list representing the powers of a primitive element of the field is used to do field arithmetic, and False otherwise.
