We weren’t sure these could scale up to a system the size of Mathematica 6. In Mathematica 5, we had a primitive Function Navigator-and we also had The Mathematica Book.

And some like using hierarchical function navigation-or a book-like table of contents. Some like using our conceptual overview “guide pages”. Not surprisingly, we discovered that different people are different. We studied how people prefer to find information inside Mathematica.

The Virtual Book starts from the full text of Stephen Wolfram’s The Mathematica Book, then adds thousands of pages of new and more advanced documentation. The Function Navigator is a complete hierarchical tool for navigating all 2500+ functions of Mathematica. Open up the Documentation Center, and you’ll see two new elements: the Function Navigator and the Virtual Book. We’ve added a new navigation mechanism to every function page, with tens of thousands of new links. And we’ve now accumulated enough improvements that we’ve decided to release 6.0.2-which is being sent to Premier Service customers as of today.Ħ.0.2 is not about major new features instead, it’s about adding, smoothing and rounding out features in Mathematica 6.0.0.įor most users, the most obvious of the various changes in 6.0.2 is in the Documentation Center. We brought out Mathematica 6.0.1 last summer to add a variety of improvements that didn’t make it into 6.0.0.

But we’re also continuing to polish and strengthen everything that’s already in Mathematica. We’re developing major new frameworks and we’re adding boatloads of new functions. Some people are working on Mathematica 7 some people on Mathematica 8. Now there’s a huge pipeline of new development underway. In the middle of last year, we had our biggest launch in a decade: Mathematica 6. In my ten years at Wolfram Research, I’ve never seen so much software development activity.
