Mathematica includes thousands of built-in functions and curated data on many topics that let you:

• Build large-scale production systems using Mathematica's unique mix of computational ability, performance, and rapid development
• Evaluate and improve your architecture before writing code, or test the performance of sections of the code before the application is fully implemented
• Use CUDA architecture to calculate game physics of debris or fluids or to speed up applications in other fields that demand high performance
• Explore software evolution or vulnerabilities interactively, and visualize relationships between code modules with built-in graph modeling functions
• Automatically turn descriptions of models into C or Fortran code
• Plot running time to see how it scales with input size
• Automate the coding process, dramatically reducing time to delivery
• Create quick prototypes or computationally complex infrastructure

Does your current tool set have these advantages?

• Test sections of code as they are written more easily than with compiled languages
• Built-in serialization for Mathematica expressions makes it easy to save and restore the state of your system
• Get your work done with a small fraction of the code required in other languages
• Generate optimized C code automatically with built-in functions
• Choose from functional, procedural, and rule-based programming paradigms as needed
• Mix code, documentation, test cases, examples, and calculations related to your program in a single highly organized document
• Free-form linguistic input produces immediate results while making it easy to learn the correct syntax
• Build on the industry's largest collection of built-in algorithms for a wide range of mathematics, science, and engineering applications to write less code and accomplish tasks not possible with other platforms
• Take advantage of Wolfram Workbench, an advanced IDE with powerful development tools
