Systems-Level Functionality

Systems-Level Functionality in Mathematica 11

Mathematica Version 11 adds several system-level functions in areas like network programming, file processing, cryptography, and command shell automation. Network functionality ranges from basic ping times to advanced socket programming and cookie manipulation. The brand-new command line script interpreter can process data and run scripts using local or cloud-based kernels.

Key Features

  • Resolve and look up host names. »
  • Open connections to arbitrary TCP ports. »
  • Time network routes. »
  • Generate symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic keys. »
  • Encrypt and decrypt arbitrary expressions. »
  • Easily run a command on a file in a directory or directory tree. »
  • Full programmatic control of cookie management. »
  • Evaluate code on the command line. »
  • Call an APIFunction from the command line.
  • Use cloud evaluation to run scripts or other code on machines with no local kernel.
