Mathematica

 

Editorial review

Mathematica is a computer algebra and numerical calculation software developed by Wolfram Research. It essentially allows formal calculation (manipulation of mathematical expressions in symbolic form, for example: calculation of derivatives, primitives, simplication of expressions, etc.) and numerical calculation (evaluation of mathematical expressions in the form numerical: for example: calculation of the first decimals of the number Π é, approximate valuation of integrals, etc...). Mathematica incorporates a sophisticated programming language and also allows for graphing. It is a software widely used in education, in scientific research and in industry.
