Mathematica at Huntington University
What
is Mathematica?
Mathematica
is the world's most powerful global computing environment. Ideal for use in
engineering, mathematics, finance, physics, chemistry, biology, and a wide
range of other fields, it makes possible a new level of automation in
algorithmic computation, interactive manipulation, and dynamic presentation--as
well as a whole new way of interacting with the world of data.
Features include instant dynamic interactivity, high-impact adaptive
visualization, symbolic interface construction, load-on-demand curated data,
and more.
Is
Mathematica available for my machine's operating system?
Mathematica is available for on-site machines running Windows, Mac OS
X, and Linux. Home-use licenses are available for machines running Windows, Mac
OS X, and Linux.
