Wolfram

Wolfram is a unified computation platform that brings together algorithms, data, notebooks, linguistics and deployment tools to create powerful workflows across a wide range of computing environments. It represents all computational ideas at a high level for humans and AIs. Wolfram brings breakthrough algorithms, knowledgebase and AI technology to compute expert-level answers. And it offers consulting services to help with any project, big or small, and is revolutionizing computational education with modern technology.

Wolfram is useful for a wide range of areas, including R&D, education, data science, enterprise, software development, content creation and publishing. It's good for students and new users who want to get started with the power of computation. The platform includes a range of tools and services:

• Wolfram Language: A symbolic programming language that combines high-level representations with advanced superfunctions to rapidly express complex ideas in computational form.
• Mathematica: The company's flagship technical computation product for desktop and cloud computing, expanded over the last three decades.
• Wolfram|Alpha Notebook Edition: Combines the ease of use of Wolfram|Alpha with the interactivity of Mathematica.
• Free Wolfram Engine for Developers: A locally installed engine that can be used to infuse software development with computational intelligence.
• Finance Platform: Uses algorithmic flexibility and built-in knowledge to tackle cutting-edge finance.
• System Modeler: Offers integrated design optimization for large-scale engineering and system modeling.
• Wolfram Player: Allows users to view and interact with Wolfram Notebooks.
• WolframScript: Runs Wolfram Language code from a command-line interface.

Wolfram also offers enterprise products, including a private cloud, application server and on-premises Wolfram|Alpha appliance. And it has a range of mobile apps for cloud access, course help and professional tools.

Pricing details aren't listed on the site, and people interested in the technology should contact Wolfram for a custom quote. The company does offer a free trial, though, and you can try out different products and services before buying. Wolfram's documentation, online courses and community support mean you can learn how to get the most out of the platform.
