Hello netters,
I have two questions about Wolfram's Mathematica. I would
appreciate any possible help available.
(1) I have a list in Mathematica {{1,2}, {3,4}, ...} and I want
to be able to output this into a text file (with no formatting) in
standard two column format. I have studied the manual and have
found no method. Alternatively is there a way to simply cut and paste
it. I am using a Macintosh front end. Basically I need to get data from
Mathematica into another program.
(2) I am interested in writing a control-theory program to help
to teach the basics. I would like to know if anyone has accomplished
written a shell on top of Mathematica (or Matlab) to utilize the
commands from mathematica, but have a program in C or Fortran. I
do not think that Mathematica's command splice will work. However, I
could be mistaken.
THank you very much for your time. It annoys me when people say to
"email me" because i think the purpose of the net is for everybody to
learn. So unless this is very dumb question and you dont want to
embaress me, please POST so the world can learn.

Try f=OpenWrite["filename", FormatType->OutputForm] Write[f, MatrixForm[list]] Close[f] where filename is the name of the file you want to write to and list is the matrix you want to write. NB! This gives a blank line between each row of the matrix. Knut Morken Institutt for informatikk University of Oslo Norway Email:knutm@ifi.uio.no

Yes, albeit slowly, and with limited graphical facilities. We have the Front End (the kernel runs on a Sun SPARCStation) here and it works well. It's very cheap, too. All you need is TCP access to a computer running the full version. Your local network guru should be able to help you set things up. -- Phil Etheridge (phil@waikato.ac.nz) Phax: +64 +71 381 155 Computer Services/Mathematics & Statistics Phone: +64 +71 568 299 x 8339 University of Waikato, Hamilton, NZ.
