- Create engineering models to optimize production methods of solar panels and use built-in weather data to backtest their reliability
- Study the chemistry of air pollution to design cleaner cars
- Examine satellite data to study deforestation
- Analyze soil test or atmospheric data to track the spread of contaminants or monitor cleanup efforts
Build a presentation with text, graphics, formatted math, and interactive elements in one document
Import and visualize your data in hundreds of formats or work with data from web services
The Wolfram Edge
How Wolfram Compares
Key Capabilities
Does your current tool set have these advantages?
-
Import experimental data, perform computations, and deliver results in one interactive document rather than working with several applications, making it easy to share data
Excel, R, STATA, and other programs do not offer an integrated document environment -
Integrated automatic report generation to instantly generate reports with graphics, text, and code, making it easy for others to verify your results
Sage, Octave and other freeware do not support automatic report generation -
Symbolic calculations improve the accuracy and reliability of environmental science models over solely numeric computations
R, STATA, MATLAB, and other numerical systems do not have integrated symbolic functionality -
Instantly create interactive modeling or data analysis tools without programming expertise
-
Powerful symbolic statistical computation and built-in functions for all standard statistical distributions
Advanced symbolic computational capabilities are unique to the Wolfram Language -
Create highly customized, presentation-quality visualizations, including charts, bar charts, scatter plots, and many more
SPSS requires explicit programming for customized charts
Create interactive tools for data analysis or to easily change parameters in models
Analyze energy production from a wind turbine
