A Guide to Programming: Wolfram U Course

How to write more complex programs in different programming styles. Learn to utilize flow control primitives and other features of Wolfram Language. Tips for intermediate-level programmers.

Go beyond the basics of programming in Wolfram Language. Learn how to write more complex programs in different programming styles as well as utilize flow control primitives and other features of this high-level programming language. Wolfram Language has a wealth of built-in functions that require little or no programming, but there are special applications that require programming to get the code to do things that go beyond those built-in capabilities. This course offers a collection of useful tips and technical details for intermediate-level programmers. Wolfram AI Course Assistant is available for this interactive course.
