Kudos to Wolfram for this.

I do wonder how much pressure they're feeling from the likes of IPython these days and if that was a motivating factor.

The other part is I don't think I've met a regular Mathematica user that actually likes it, so this may turn out to be a bad idea!

tomrod8• 13 years ago

I think SageMath might be closer in spirit to Mathematica, but SageMath uses IPython a bit under the hood.

baldfat3• 13 years ago

What does "SageMath uses IPython a bit under the hood" ????

To Quote Sage's home page: "Sage is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It combines the power of many existing open-source packages into a common Python-based interface."

Sage is based on Python and so it is not a bit it is the whole thing.

mbq• 13 years ago

Student versions of Mathematica are also pretty cheap; that's rather just a vendor lock-in attempt (;

jwr2• 13 years ago

Mathematica to me is like Perl. You don't necessarily like it, but it is often the tool that gets the job done in a minimum amount of time, with spectacular results.

nswanberg5• 13 years ago

IPython is great system for interactive programming, especially for someone who is familiar with Python and is able to find a complete distribution or able to set up all the details about their distribution (e.g. avoid problems like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6725597), or someone who requires free-as-in-speech software.

I don't use either IPython or Mathematica much, but I would understand preferring Mathematica over IPython given the choice. Aside from being younger, IPython is made of a combination of systems without a strong conceptual glue tying them together. Mathematica is made of a combination of systems too (kernel written in C, various external libraries in C, Lucene search engine, etc), but the components are tied together using what I guess is now called the Wolfram language, where everything, from computations to settings to notebooks themselves, is specified in Wolfram language expressions. If you view an IPython file in a text editor you see JSON, which is different than the language used to compute. If you open a Mathematica notebook in a text editor you see a nested set of Wolfram language expressions. Mathematica grew up around that idea.

As a further small example, compare the prompts to the two systems:

  IPython
  In [1]: 1+2
  Out[1]: 3

  Mathematica
  In[1]:= 1+2
  Out[1]= 3

In IPython, the array brackets are just a sort of notation--the assignment isn't syntactially correct Python. But in Mathematica, you can view that prompt as assigning the value of an In list at index 1 the expression "1+2".

That sort of consistency holds through the entire system in a way that IPython can't match.

doctoboggan• 13 years ago

I am not sure if you are aware of this, but you can access the history of IPython inputs and outputs through the two arrays `In` and `Out`. This prompt is precisely indicating this.

guipsp• 13 years ago

the assignment isn't syntactially correct Python.

It is.

cschmidt3• 13 years ago

I've used Mathematica for 24 years now, and I quite like it. It was especially helpful when I was in school, for working on my homework. The fact that it could do symbolic calculus, and do algebra without making any mistakes helped a ton. These sorts of problems....

    In[1]:= D[x^2 Sin[x], x]
    Out[1]= x^2 Cos[x] + 2 x Sin[x]

    In[8]:= Integrate[Sin[x], {x, 0, c}]
    Out[8]= 1 - Cos[c]

    In[10]:= Solve[{x + 23 y + x^2 == 46, x - y == 234}, {x, y}]
    Out[10]= {{x -> 2 (-6 - Sqrt[1393]), y -> 2 (-123 - Sqrt[1393])}, 
              {x -> 2 (-6 + Sqrt[1393]), y -> 2 (-123 + Sqrt[1393])}}

I love ipython as well, but it can't do that sort of thing.

baldfat3• 13 years ago

You can with Sage: http://ask.sagemath.org/question/3142/is-it-possible-to-run-...

ris4• 13 years ago

I love ipython as well, but it can't do that sort of thing.

I love the amount of investigation people put into this sort of thing before making blanket statements like this.

    >>> diff ( x**2 * sin ( x ) , x )
     2
    x *cos(x) + 2*x*sin(x)

    >>> integrate ( sin ( x ) , ( x , 0 , c ) )
    -cos(c) + 1

    >>> solve ( [ Eq ( x + 23 * y + x**2 , 46 ) , Eq ( x - y , 234 ) ] )
                   ______                ______
    [{x: -12 + 2*\/ 1393 , y: -246 + 2*\/ 1393 },
              ______                    ______
    {x: - 2*\/ 1393 - 12, y: -246 - 2*\/ 1393 }]

Try it for yourself: http://live.sympy.org/

I am no sympy expert at all - I figured it all out in the time since I read your comment. But of course I'm sure you love ipython as well.

(edit - fixed copy&pasting stupidness)

tomrod8• 13 years ago

So all I need for a free mathematica install is to spin a virtual machine with Raspbian?

q3k• 13 years ago

Which is not going to be fast at all.

tomrod8• 13 years ago

Why is that? Couldn't one just give additional resources from the machine to it, or is ARM-emulation just poor quality?

liyanage3• 13 years ago

I would imagine you'd need an ARM-based virtual machine. Perhaps QEMU could do it.

tomrod8• 13 years ago

Makes sense.

LukeShu• 13 years ago

Qemu can indeed do it. http://xecdesign.com/qemu-emulating-raspberry-pi-the-easy-wa...

liyanage3• 13 years ago

That said, it sounds like it might be a hassle to get that to work on a Mac.

I got the personal license of Mathematica for Mac a while ago and thought the price was reasonable for such a powerful system.

The only thing that was driving me nuts is that Mathematica does not work properly on a Retina display, which of course is a shame as text and graphics would look gorgeous. Support for that is only planned for the next major version, according to Wolfram (http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/30104/10565).

I recently found a hacky fix: http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/a/21158/10565

With that, Mathematica now looks fantastic on my MacBook Pro's built-in screen.

gizmo686• 13 years ago

You could also just get the binary from the Raspbian repositories. You would still need to make sure you have all the binary-compatible dependencies, but at most you need a chroot (and ARM processor/emulator).

ics2• 13 years ago

So how many Pis can you cluster together to equal the performance of a standard i3/5/7 laptop (for non-GPU bound calculations)?

tomrod8• 13 years ago

That'd be a fun experiment. If only I had disposable income :).

I wonder how much heat these things produce? Could they be used to make an efficient, small cluster?

ics2• 13 years ago

Mount an Arduino to measure the heat which bridges into your Mathematica program... world's most efficient micro-Mathematica cluster, world's least efficient radiator circuit.

DanBC• 13 years ago

People make clusters of them. Here are some links:

2 to 64 nodes http://www.southampton.ac.uk/~sjc/raspberrypi/pi_supercomput...

http://raspberrywebserver.com/raspberrypicluster/raspberry-p...

http://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2013/07/19/secret-recipe-for-ra...

Canonical had a 43 node Arm build cluster http://www.geek.com/chips/canonical-builds-a-42-core-arm-clu... and there's a campaign for an RPi version http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a-raspberry-pi-build-clust...

noir_lord• 13 years ago

You could make a cluster with them (in fact for none-mathematica uses it has been done).

Efficient not even remotely the performance per unit of a Raspberry Pi just makes it not worth it (note: it's worth it if you want to simulate multi-node programming, SMPP type stuff).

For example a 32 node raspberry pi machine clocked 10.9Gflops on linpack[1], 32 * 35 is $1120 (excluding switches, cabling, power supplies which would add at least another $200 or so).

A single Nvidia Titan clocks ~1.5 Teraflops in double precession mode for ~$1000 (a performance per dollar rate of 137 times better).

According to wikipedia[2] a cheap Sempron 145 with 3 Geforce GTX760's at $1090 has a performance of 6.771 teraflops (so over 500 times the performance of the 32 node raspbery pi)

Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes... I fear the Greeks even when they bring gifts...

I don't get it... Wolfram is a money-hungry egomaniac. For example, unlike the other big Ma competitors (Maple, Matlab, Magma) not a single source line of Mathematica code is exposed. He's litigious, he labels everthing "mine", he endlessly praises himself. He wrote this insulting "don't worry your pretty little head with our source code, it's too complicated for you" piece:

http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/WhyYouDoNo...

So... gratis Mathematica on Raspbian... what's the catch? Is it to lure us to the cloud?

http://www.wolframcloud.com/

Edit: To clarify, my guess here is that they want to give people a taste of Mathematica on weak hardware in order to lure them to a subscription model on "the cloud" where much more processing power will be available, just like widespread university site-wide licenses and turning a blind eye to student piracy are great marketing strategies.

Is there any evidence to support my wild theories?

glifchits• 13 years ago

Totally agree. The kids who are fortunate enough to be part of the computer based math movement really should be learning scientific computing on FOSS... not building their foundation on restrictive, typically very expensive software.

sliverstorm• 13 years ago

If the kids today happen to learn a love for higher math thanks to Mathematica, I hardly begrudge Wolfram a few extra licenses down the road.

aray• 13 years ago

I first started exploring advanced math, graphing, and basic programming using Mathematica, and as much as I love OSS and FOSS math software, I think 12-year-old-me would have a much harder time with FOSS software today than even the Mathematica of more than a decade ago.

Having good free software is very important! But I wouldn't pull back on providing this software, especially where it could be used to provide a real benefit on learning, based on free software ideals.

Octave & co. could see this as encouragement to get better support for themselves on the raspberry pi as well! I see no reason why they can't all coexist.

mathattack• 13 years ago

How transferable is the learning? If they are learning real math, won't they be able to switch to FOSS (or anything else) soon thereafter?

JackFr• 13 years ago

I find Wolfram endlessly amusing, in an uber-nerdy way. He is a money-hungry egomaniac. In interviews I have read and from what I understand, he is utterly devoid of charm. But he is a brilliant man.

And Mathematica is an amazing piece of software. (Or at least was -- I haven't used it about twenty years. Twenty years ago it was mind-blowingly good. Nothing was even close.)

And 'A New Kind of Science' was a fascinating book. It hasn't quite ushered in the revolution Wolfram still seems to expect, but it was fascinating nonetheless.

mcguire2• 13 years ago

"And 'A New Kind of Science' was a fascinating book. It hasn't quite ushered in the revolution Wolfram still seems to expect, but it was fascinating nonetheless."

Possibly because, from what I remember of the reviews, most people said something to the effect of, "It's brilliant! Well, the part I know anything about is garbage, but the rest is great!"

hyperbovine2• 13 years ago

What a ridiculous post. The quote in question is a reference the Trojan horse, so unless you are suggesting that loading Mathematica onto the Pi will, in fact, destroy it, I don't see any merit to this analogy. And while it's true that Steve Wolfram is incredibly arrogant, so too is the act of publicly shaming him for refusing to share his code, no? The man has spent the last 25 years perfecting his product and along comes you, acting like you have some God-given right to inspect its inner workings. Gimme a break.

danparsonson• 13 years ago

The quote in question is a reference the Trojan horse, so unless you are suggesting that loading Mathematica onto the Pi will, in fact, destroy it, I don't see any merit to this analogy.

It is, as you say, an analogy and not to be taken literally.

Someone offering a suspiciously good gift can be expected to expect something in return that may not be to your benefit - particularly if the gift giver is not known for being a philanthropist.

hdevalence6• 13 years ago

along comes you, acting like you have some God-given right to inspect its internals

Well,it's mathematics software, so it's actually really not unreasonable. Fortunately, the rest of mathematics has moved past the seventeenth-century style of "Here's my result, the proof is secret". If Mathematica is intended to be suitable for mathematical research, then its source must be open so that the results are auditable.

Other mathematics software like Sage doesn't have this problem, and is already available for the Raspberry Pi for free, obviating the need to use Mathematica.

malandrew• 13 years ago

No, this is actually valid criticism. People are generally adverse to learning new software programs, when the one they've been using for years has served them so well. With this in mind, we'll be exposing thousands of students to closed source software when the open source alternatives are more than adequate for teaching. By the time students need features in Mathematica that are not present in the open source alternatives, they will have the skills to contribute those features back as pull requests.

This is a Trojan horse. It undermines the open source alternatives. The Pi foundation here is betraying its open source roots.

mistercow2• 13 years ago

so unless you are suggesting that loading Mathematica onto the Pi will, in fact, destroy it, I don't see any merit to this analogy

That's not really how you refute an analogy. In any analogy, you can find differences, but not all differences are relevant. You could say "Mathematica isn't made of wood", or "Mathematica isn't full of soldiers", but these differences don't weaken the analogy.

You have to look at the claimed similarity (in this case, ulterior motives) and show a difference that conflicts with that claim.

You have failed to do this, and so your refutation falls flat.

lutusp17• 13 years ago

acting like you have some God-given right to inspect its inner workings.

As it happens, closed-source mathematical software is next to useless for anything serious, and for scientific work, it's fatal. This is the single biggest obstacle to programs like Mathematica -- it may be useful for experimentation, but once one intends to publish, it has to be completely excluded from the process.

Imagine someone claiming to have cured cancer, but using a method that other laboratories cannot imitate or inspect, essentially black magic. That's what faces people who try to use Mathematica in scientific work. It violates the most basic principle of science -- transparency.

tomrod8• 13 years ago

Not godgiven, but RMS philosophy...

sebkomianos• 13 years ago

Also, funny thing, the quote is not a reference to the Trojan horse but wisdom that derived from that trick the greeks pulled. It doesn't mean "don't allow wooden horses in your castle", it means "maybe there is something behind the obvious".

JosephHatfield• 13 years ago

Agreed. I couldn't even re-install a licensed copy of the app without requesting permission from Wolfram support.

taliesinb12• 13 years ago

I don't get it... Wolfram is a money-hungry egomaniac.

That's kinda funny. Our revenue per employee is lower than the industry average. If the company was interested in money uber alles, there are many more profitable and less interesting ways of doing it than what we do now.

not a single source line of Mathematica code is exposed

Well, not sure what you mean by 'exposed'. But you can read large swathes of our code by looking in the right place in the installation. We also have some official open source projects, like our HadoopLink: https://github.com/shadanan/HadoopLink

ethomson3• 13 years ago

Obviously he was talking about Stephen, the person, not Wolfram Research, the company.

lutusp17• 13 years ago

> I don't get it... Wolfram is a money-hungry egomaniac.
That's kinda funny. Our revenue per employee is lower than the industry average.

That's true for investment banks too (i.e. lower than comparable management positions in other fields), but this doesn't mean the higher-ups aren't money-hungry egomaniacs. In fact, it can be argued that when the salaries of mid-level employees are low compared to industry norms, that fact may be used to argue that the company is top-heavy, even possibly money-hungry.

But you can read large swathes of our code by looking in the right place in the installation.

This is misleading. One can read all sorts of user-level script code, but no source code at all. It's not an accident, and it explains why Mathematica cannot be used in serious mathematical work, work meant for technical and scientific publication and peer review.

jordigh9• 13 years ago

Well, not sure what you mean by 'exposed'.

Personally, I would love to see Mathematica's simplification and integration routines some day and discuss them with everyone. That's one of the "basic" things that the free CASes still get so woefully wrong, and for me is one of the most interesting secrets.

So you guys (?) released publicly some boring code about linking Mathematica with Hadoop. Big whoop, it's just a wrapper. Where's the real interesting stuff?

lutusp17• 13 years ago

Is there any evidence to support my wild theories?

Certainly. Wolfram was once a near-monopoly in computer-aided mathematics, but their exalted position is fast eroding, diminished by free alternatives like Sage¹.

Wolfram's response has been to package their product in increasingly ingenious ways, as with Wolfram Alpha², which has been quite successful. But in the long term, these methods will fail, because for mathematics to be both valid and understood, it must be transparent.

1. http://www.sagemath.org/

2. http://www.wolframalpha.com/

taliesinb12• 13 years ago

An entire country (Estonia) recently bought a Mathematica site license.. I don't see that as evidence of monopoly erosion.

Look, Sage is great, I hope Sage does really well and eventually duplicates the entirety of our functionality. But at the current rate it'll take probably hundreds of years. Sometimes, profit-subsidized research is just much, much more productive at driving innovation.

iconjack• 13 years ago

That was my first reaction too. I say that as a fan of both Stephen Wolfram and his baby, Mathematica. If there's one thing I've learned over ten years of using this product, it's that Wolfram does not give away Mathematica. They enforce their student- and home-version rules like nothing else I've purchased. And it's damned expensive in a pool full of very powerful, free alternatives.

But I don't know what he could be up to. Getting people hooked? Seems like running Mathematica on underpowered hardware could leave a bad taste in people's mouths.

lovemenot• 13 years ago

> But I don't know what he could be up to. A couple of things come to mind. Not necessarily nefarious. Firstly, I remember watching a TED video[1] by Steven's brother Conrad, which was passionate about using computers for teaching Mathematics. Perhaps this Pi initiative is less commercial than philanthropic and was initiated by Conrad. Secondly, if you look at Wolfram's own blog post[2] on the Pi release of Mathematica, he talks about his new Wolfram Language far more than about the Pi platform. I suspect Steven Wolfram is as successful a business-person as he needs to be now, but he intends for his legacy to be as a revolutionary. I don't know this for sure, but Wolfram Language seems to be a beachhead for NKS in usable form. I also speculate the common Britishness of these two organisations might have helped move this project forward.

They could have just put it in the non-free repositories, but noooo-nooo it comes preinstalled. Obviously an attempt to push non-free software - just like MS pushing VS with Dreamspark.

Looking at the frighteningly informative article on the Wolfram page, your theory doesn't seem far out at all.

SloopJon• 13 years ago

I've wanted a Raspberry Pi for a while, but I couldn't quite justify it. I also toyed with the idea of getting the $300 home edition of Mathematica (also limited to non-professional use, BTW), but again didn't have enough of a reason.

Although my preference is for free software (hadn't heard of either SymPy or Mathics mentioned elsewhere), I like the idea of plugging a Raspberry Pi into the router, and being an X session away from Mathematica.

mcguire2• 13 years ago

Interesting marketing strategy: free is good advertising, but (FWIU) the raspi doesn't have the horsepower to compete with Wolfram's actual products.

shared4you• 13 years ago

This is why Debian does not recommend Raspberry Pi [0]

Despite the hype it is a more closed platform than many other things you could buy

Claiming to be open, but still encouraging and endorsing non-open-source software. I was startled to read why R.Pi is unsuitable for education [1]

mhurron• 13 years ago

Given that most educational uses of the Pi won't involved developing things at such a low level as to require detailed specs of the processor and that the OS's for the Pi are all freely available that article would probably be better titled "Why the Pi is unsuitable for educating hardware engineers about ARM."

The $25 price point is more important to the educational use (K-12) then any specs put out about the hardware. I don't need to know any of that to learn Python for instance.

ris4• 13 years ago

That's a very patronizing attitude. There are a good number of high school students that are already at the level of reverse engineering drivers.

atmosx• 13 years ago

Well that's kinda harsh. It's a hardware platform, it makes sense for them to be happy to get more choices as they go. I don't care about Mathematica on the Pi, but someone might be interested, why not give them the choice? :-)

Open source (and linux fragmentation for example) is all about choices right?

tedunangst• 13 years ago

Open source (and linux fragmentation for example) is all about choices right?

Only if you make the right choices.

yeukhon• 13 years ago

I don't understand your point. I am a realist and I think there is a value in using both open and closed source tools. It is like giving out Matlab for free and you think this is a bad thing? I am not saying don't use octave or numpy scipy, but honestly students and educators can careless about whether the tool they are using is open or closed. The number 1 thing about education is not about the tool being open or closed source, it's whether the tool is usable. Mathematica is a very well-known software and many Math teachers have used it before.

Seriously, they are not endorsing non-open-soruce. They are graceful that there is one additional tool available to educators. Your "debian repository" is a marketplace. I don't see why education has to be run with open source tools. Why? Do we all have to use Open Office instead of MS Office suite? I actually like MS suite better but I just don't want to purchase a license for my Mac so I keep Open Office. I like fusion over virtualbox. There is nothing wrong with anyone using closed source in education. Please stop thinking that because Raspberry Pi runs on open source operating system it has to include open source software from start to end. The end goal is to be able to afford cheap hardware and bundle a bunch of software for classroom use.

Someone4• 13 years ago

Does anybody know what license this is released under? For example, can one run it under an emulator? On something more powerful than a Pi? Using an ARM-to-my-CPU jitter (does that work at all, or does Mathematica have its own JIT inboard?)

If one managed to hack the binaries and include them in an iOS app, would Wolfram permit that?

phonon2• 13 years ago

"...free for anyone to use for personal purposes. (There’s also going to be a licensing mechanism for commercial uses, other Linux ARM systems, and so on.)"

Someone4• 13 years ago

Thanks. I think the "on the Raspberry Pi" part of the statement in that post is significant, though. I doubt they will feel fine if someone wrote a clone of the Mathematica kernel and copied over the notebooks from this release, to be run on, say, a desktop PC.

tokipin2• 13 years ago

Mathematica can deal with arbitrary-precision numbers (or better said, Mathematica doesn't blindly use whatever underlying number format is present, it has precise controls for this sort of thing http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/ArbitraryP...)

Narishma• 13 years ago

The ARMv6 CPU in the Pi has an FPU. Depending on your OS, you can use it in two different ways:

* softfp where the float function arguments are passed in using integer registers or the stack

* hardfp where they are passed in using the FPU registers

In the above cases, the float operations are done in hardware in the FPU. There is a 3rd ABI called softfloat where everything is done in software, and thus is very slow.

flatfilefan2• 13 years ago

Mathematica being what it is, what are science intensive problems worth solving on raspberry pi without uploading to a server? I'm thinking along the lines of robototechnics. Something like calculating a ballistic trajectory for autonomous gun turret with statistical analysis of precision via feedback loop. Feedback being the delay of sound of projectile impact for impact distance. Or visual position of a hit. You get the idea. What can you think of for civil use?

I find that it's fine for most things but slow for visualizations (and you need an x server running, not making the most of the emulated hardware).

(Can anyone succeed in using this method and then adding it as a remote kernel to a normal desktop Mathematica session?)
