The functionality and equations are pretty simple to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Mathematica? Keeps crashing and no autosave feature, even though you "compile" your code like a regular programming language. I just lost 3 hours of work because my computer crashed while running it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Mathematica solving and how is that benefiting you? I'm using it to solve various differential equations and using the matrix algebra features. The matrix algebra features are very useful, and you can use as many constants as you want.
