The real gem in Mathematica is its online help functionality which can be reached by pressing the 'F1' key at any time. Here you have access to the documentation for *all* functions and packages in Mathematica. A nice little trick is to highlight the function you are interessted in and then press 'F1'. For example if you want the details about the Mathematica function If[], then write If[] in your notebook, highlight it with the mouse and hit 'F1' > It would be better if one can provide me some examples., or documentation which contains some solved examples in Mathematica. All the documentation has examples, you justr have to press the little triangle in the bottom left of the help page. > Thanks in advance. No problem, happy exploration :-) - oh yeah i almost forgot; the written manual called "The Mathematica Book" is also found electronically in the help browser. Enjoy!
