The Mathematica 4 Japanese Edition Is Now Shipping
January 17, 2000--Wolfram Research announces the release of the
Mathematica 4 Japanese Edition. While offering a completely
Japanese
interface, the Mathematica 4 Japanese Edition possesses all of the
same
powerful features and program capabilities for which Mathematica is
internationally known. In a recent review, MACLIFE magazine called
Mathematica a universal technical computation tool, saying it is "a
necessary tool not only for engineering but also for other various fields,
such as business and finance" and "an ultimate tool for teaching and
research presentations."
Mathematica 4, the latest release of Wolfram Research's
award-winning
technical computing system, combines extraordinary calculating abilities
with a comprehensive collection of visualization and technical publishing
tools--all in a single, elegant environment. The combination of fast new
internal algorithms, increased capabilities for importing and exporting,
and new document-processing features makes Mathematica 4 ideal for
final
simulations as well as prototyping--a complete ideas-to-results computing
environment.
The Mathematica 4 Japanese Edition features:
- Japanese menus and dialog boxes
- Japanese error messages in both the kernel and the notebook interface
- Japanese online help, including an online master index and online
keyword searches
- Japanese online guides to all kernel messages and all notebook
interface
options
- A complete Japanese translation, both online and in print, of the
1400+ page
The Mathematica Book, Fourth Edition
- A choice of English or Japanese interfaces
The Japanese Edition also includes full translations of other
Mathematica
documentation including the Getting Started with Mathematica and
MathLink
manuals.
Mathematica is the only technical computing system to offer such an
extensive Japanese localization, providing not only a Japanese user
interface and documentation but also input and output of Japanese kanji
characters for professional-quality publications and web-ready
presentations. "The Japanese insistence on quality and thoroughness has
endeared them to Mathematica and resulted in our long-standing
success in
this market. That's why it was imperative that the quality of our
localization was up to Wolfram Research standards--not just industry
standards," said Conrad Wolfram, Director of Strategic and International
Development for Wolfram Research.
