Mathematica is one of the world's most
respected software systems, and an essential tool for leaders in
science and technology across the globe. Legendary for its sophisticated
capabilities, yet easy enough to be used by
children, Mathematica has emerged as the most powerful general
computation system ever created--and a complete computational
environment for millions of people. Whether they have tasks that involve numbers,
formulas, functions, graphics, data, documents, or
interfaces, Mathematica gives automatic access to by far the
largest collection of algorithms ever assembled.
Originally developed by
Stephen Wolfram for his own
research, Mathematica was first released to the world's
technical community in 1988. Since then--under Dr. Wolfram's
continuing leadership at
Wolfram Research--
Mathematica has been
at the forefront of a string of important advances in computing. The key
breakthrough that originally made Mathematica possible was the
development of its unique symbolic programming language. Unifying a
tremendous range of computational concepts, the implications of this
language still continue to broaden.
Used at almost all Fortune 500 companies, all major universities, and on
every continent,
Mathematica has been a crucial tool in many important
scientific, technical, and business innovations. Used not only by
Nobel-prizewinning researchers but also by high-school
educators and students,
Mathematica has also enhanced the education of a generation of
students.
While Mathematica has become integrated into a great many ongoing
technical processes, its most unique strength is its ability to let
people do what has never been done before--whether in science,
mathematics, engineering, technology, business, or the arts.
WolframTones is in many ways a quintessential example of
applying Mathematica--making broad use of its power,
flexibility, and practicality--to take a fresh idea and turn it
into something very real.
