I really wish Mathematica would open-source the heuristics behind these core functions (including common mathematical functions, Simplify, Integrate, etc.). The documentation is good, but it still lags behind the actual implementation. It w

You need to ask via API to make sure that there is no system prompt.

I hope we can have something that combines the meta-programming capabilities of Zig with the vast ecosystem, community and safety of Rust. Looking at the language design, I really prefer Zig to Rust, but as an incompetent, amateur programme

I don't think the author intends to provide a serious production solution, at least not for now. Runit tools in busybox - up to the task? Let's test busybox's runit applets in a hypothetical ;) scenario when s

Ah, to be more precise, I work in high energy theory (hep-th): https://arxiv.org/archive/hep-th . I shouldn't have spoken for theoretical physics in general, but in hep-th, mathematica is basically a requirement (n

These are all valid criticisms. There is no type system, although some safeguards can be implemented through pattern matching and conditions (see the answer by @derf_ above). For quick and dirty transforms on symbolic math expressions, thes

Wolfram would like to say that he invented Mathematica all by himself, but in its core, it is basically a lisp: everything is an expression, and mathematics are just transformations of the expressions. Afaik this makes it the best tool (con
