Concrete change: the innovative chemistry of sustainable cement

Futurum

This could be by-products from steel manufacturing or mineral mining, or even the reprocessing of old cement from construction or demolition sites. It would be most beneficial if the generated minerals could be reused in the construction or mining industries, to avoid the storage of large amounts of material.”

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

Stephen Wolfram

Then for each function (or other construct in the language) there are pages that explain the function, with extensive examples. And we’ve been steadily doing the engineering to let AIs call on Wolfram Language as easily as possible. One new construct added in Version 13.1 —and And now that’s what the AIs can use as well.
