Mathematica 7 introduces state-of-the-art visualization of vector fields generated from both functions and data. Building on Mathematica's powerful capabilities in differential equations, geometry and symbolic analysis, Mathematica 7 brings a new level of automation and computational aesthetics to vector visualization. With applications in fluid mechanics, meteorology, electromagnetism, dynamical systems and other areas, Mathematica 7 for the first time allows textbook-quality images of vector fields to be generated immediately as a routine part of computational work.
