The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

The function Map takes a function f and “maps it” over a list: Comap does the “mathematically co-” version of this, taking a list of functions and “comapping” them onto a single argument: Why is this useful? As an example, one might want to apply three different statistical functions to a single list. is PositionSmallest. In Version 3.0

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

In 2000 I was interested in what the simplest possible axiom system for logic (Boolean algebra) might be. of what’s now Wolfram Language —we were trying to develop algorithms to compute hundreds of mathematical special functions over very broad ranges of arguments. Yes, there can be a lot of flexibility in this model.

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

Events are like functions, whose “arguments” are incoming tokens, and whose output is one or more outgoing tokens. Chemistry / Molecular Biology. In standard chemistry, one typically characterizes the state of a chemical system at a particular time in terms of the concentrations of different chemical species.

Launching Version 12.3 of Wolfram Language & Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

has a very flexible way of representing its results, that allows for different numbers of variables, different numbers of solutions, etc. &#10005. we’re connecting to “Descartes-style” analytic geometry, converting geometric descriptions to algebraic formulas. More in Chemistry. &#10005. Solve[x^2 + 3 x + 1 == 0, x].
