Inside the Wolfram Language

on YouTube ↗01h 09m

" summary

A large, practical tour: the Wolfram Language unifies Wolfram|Alpha knowledge with a symbolic programming core, shows 5,000 built-in functions, runtime cloud deployment and REST APIs, and live demos that actually work (image ops, a random-forest classifier, sound, maps). Numbers include ~3,700 device types, 38,000-digit examples and quick 50-item movie/image pulls. It ships as desktop, cloud and Raspberry Pi bundles, adds a data drop for IoT ingestion, a programming cloud beta, and playful tweetable programs that run end to end.
