MMA console usage - axkr/symja_android_library GitHub Wiki

Symja can be used as computer algebra system in a REPL featuring Mathematica-compatible syntax and functions.

Make sure that a Java 11 runtime environment (JRE 11) is installed. At a terminal you can type java -version to see if it is installed.

Download the latest Symja release from

• github.com/axkr/symja_android_library/releases

Unzip the download in a separate folder and modify the symjamma.bat file to use your Java 8 installation path to run the Symja MMAConsole:

"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java" -classpath "lib/*" org.matheclipse.io.eval.MMAConsole  

Alternatively, if you're using Maven you can run this Maven command:

mvn -f pom.xml exec:java@mma -pl matheclipse-io

The available predefined function names in the console are described in the

• /doc/functions folder

You can load a package with the Get[] function like this:

Get["./data/test.m"]

and call for example the f[] or g[] functions defined in test.m:

>> f[2]
In[2]:= f[2]
Out[2]= 4
>> g[3]
In[3]:= g[3]
Out[3]= 81
>> 

Other examples for using or programming packages can be found here

There are additional arguments to run MMAConsole and get the result back to the caller

• -c or -code run the command
• -f or -function -args arg1 arg2 run the function
