Introduction to the Mathematica Text Interface for Unix/Linux Kernel Part 1 MCSR Math Camp
Why Use the Text Interface? - If you don’t have access to Mathematica on a Windows or Mac desktop -To run Mathematica in batch Mathematica is available on willow (Solaris) and cypress (Linux). Coming soon to mimosa (Linux)
Launching the Kernel: math From willow Solaris command line, type: math
Launching the Kernel: math From cypress Linux command line, type: math
Log in to willow A.Use secure Shell to login to willow using your assigned training account ssh B. Change directories to your numbered subdirectory: cd 30
Entering Mathematica Commands
Getting Rid of the Prompt math -noprompt
Getting Commands from a File << file.nb
Running a Batch File math –run “<< file.nb”
Redirecting Output to a File
Saving Plots to a File
