The Art of Maths: Mathematica

Mathematica is a computer program used mainly in scientific, engineering and mathematical fields. It was originally conceived by Stephen Wolfram and developed by a team of mathematicians and programmers that he assembled and led.

It provides cross-platform support for tasks such as symbolic or numerical calculations, arbitrary precision arithmetic, data processing, and plotting. Mathematica has a programming language which supports functional and procedural programming styles.

Mathematica's sophisticated graphical capabilities can be used to generate a unique and mesmerizing new kind of imagery. Residing in the strange middle ground between the artificial and the natural. Mathematica represents a new intersection of two worlds usually separate: mathematics and the visual arts.
