Mathematica & Wolfram Language on Raspberry Pi 1

Date: 2013-11-24

I test Mathematica (from Wolfram) on Raspberry Pi 1 (model B2). I also start some of the alternatives: e.g. wxMaxima, QtOctave (similar to Matlab), and ROOT (from CERN) - I forgot R, sorry. In the end I rotate the 3D-plot. (I had some problems closing QtOctave since I don't see that part of the screen on my monitor. This video uses composite PAL-video output and that is y-splitted to a monitor and to the recording computer because the recording computer shows the video delayed. The output is adjusted to fill the recording, not the monitor.)

Mathematica is gratis on Raspberry Pi but closed source, but Maxima and the others are free open source software (FOSS).

What I wrote
in Mathematica (end a line with Shift+Enter):
2+2
N[Log[4 Pi],40]
x^4/(x^2-1)
Integrate[%,x]
Plot3D[Sin[x y],{x,0,Pi},{y,0,Pi}]
Plot[Sin[x^3],{x,-2,2}]

These examples come from the book "Mathematica - A System for Doing Mathematics by Computer" (1988) by Stephen Wolfram.
