All this is then hooked up to a controller which turns a crockpot on or off using DeviceWrite and DeviceWrite.Īnother post from Diego shows how you can connect a Wii Nunchuck via an Arduino Uno to Mathematica over a serial connection. In this post he writes a small mathlink wrapper to read thermocouple measurements, which he calibrated by using a LinearModelFit on three data points. A few great user examples have already been shared on the Wolfram Community website and I would like to share them here with you.Ī recent post from Diego shows how to cook your steak using your Raspberry Pi.

It also interfaces extremely well with the ‘outside world’ thanks to its large array of supported data collecting sensors and its GPIO. And this feature of making knowledge computable, as well as its powerful ability to create complex programs with very little code, makes it a great language to run on a Raspberry Pi. For over 25 years this language has grown from being able to compute with simple symbolic expressions to the computational knowledge engine it is today. This language differs from other computer languages in that it is very high level with built-in support for solving a very wide variety of computational problems. It only made sense then to build Wolfram|Alpha in the Wolfram Language. But to create this website a great many problems had to be solved in a very general and systematic way. Today, Wolfram Research is perhaps most widely known for its computational knowledge engine called Wolfram|Alpha: for many students a website which makes short order of complicated homework problems by providing step-by- step solutions.

It has been great to read tweets from educators, scientists, hobbyists and students all around the world, who are excited about using the Wolfram Language to explore the computational universe on their devices. The responses to this pilot release have been overwhelmingly positive. Just this past week, it’s become even easier to get the software since The Raspberry Pi Foundation began bundling Mathematica and the Wolfram Language directly with their standard NOOBS package and Raspbian operating system. Let us know what you’d like to do with Mathematica and the Wolfram Language – it’ll help shape future posts from Wolfram.Ī few weeks ago, on November 21st, we released the Wolfram Language and Mathematica for the Raspberry Pi. Arnoud and the Wolfram team would welcome your feedback in the comments below so would we. This first, introductory post is from Arnoud Buzing. Have you been staring at the Mathematica and Wolfram Language icons on your Raspbian install, and wondering where to get started? We’ll be featuring several guest posts from Wolfram Research in the coming weeks, so you can start to get to work with them.
