Get the list of functions from version 9.0.( article has been updated on Novemfor Raspbian Bullseye and for Docker Compose v2.Īt the end of May 2020, the Raspberry Pi Foundation announced Raspberry Pi OS, the new official operating system for the mini-computer that is replacing Raspbian. Transfer this over to my Windows PC and import into Mathematica 9.0.1 with pifuncs = Flatten] This creates a PiFuncs.dat file which tells me the list of functions in the System context on the version of Mathematica on the pi. To get an idea of what’s new in 10, I evaluated the following command on Mathematica on the Pi Export] My free pi version is at version 10! The first clue is the installation directory: /opt/Wolfram/WolframEngine/10.0Īnd the next clue is given by evaluating $Version in Mathematica itself In:= $Version I am the administrator of an unlimited academic site license for Mathematica at The University of Manchester and the latest version we can get for our PCs at the time of writing is 9.0.1. On starting Mathematica on the pi, my first big surprise was the version number.
The combination of the two is going to use up 588MB of disk space which makes me glad that I have an 8Gb SD card in my pi. So, it seems that Mathematica needs Oracle’s Java and that’s being installed for me as well. The following NEW packages will be installed:Ġ upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.Īfter this operation, 588 MB of additional disk space will be used.
On my machine, I was told The following extra packages will be installed: How to install Mathematica on the Raspberry Piįuture raspberry pis wll have Mathematica installed by default but mine wasn’t new enough so I just typed the following at the command line sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get install wolfram-engine The exercise made me miss my father because the last time I plugged a computer into the kitchen telly was when I was 8 years old it was Christmas morning and dad and I took our first steps into a new world with my Sinclair Spectrum 48K. So, I bought the Raspberry Pi Advanced Kit from my local Maplin Electronics store, plugged it to the kitchen telly and booted it up. As soon as I heard the news that Mathematica was being made available completely free on the Raspberry Pi, I just had to get myself a Pi and have a play.
