And it’s actually even more impressive than that. Yet between Version 12.0 and Version 13.0 we’ve now added a total of 635 new functions (in addition to the 702 functions that have been updated and upgraded). In Version 1.0 there were a total of 554 functions altogether. And that is why we’re able to reach so far, automate so much-and invent so much. What we build today is not built from scratch it is built on top of the huge tower of capabilities that we have built before. Because those are what have allowed what is now a huge system to maintain its coherence and consistency-and to grow ever stronger. But it also reflects something else: the success of the core design principles of the Wolfram Language. And now we can see the results of all those individual ideas and projects and pieces of work: a steady drumbeat of innovation sustained now over the course of more than a third of a century:

And I’m pleased to say that in that short time an impressive amount of R&D has come to fruition: not only a total of 117 completely new functions, but also many hundreds of updated and upgraded functions, several thousand bug fixes and small enhancements, and a host of new ideas to make the system ever easier and smoother to use.Įvery day, every week, every month for the past third of a century we’ve been pushing hard to add more to the vast integrated framework that is Mathematica and the Wolfram Language. It’s 207 days-or a little over 6 months-since we released Version 12.3. (Yes, the 1, 3 theme-complete with the fact that it’s the 13th of the month today-is amusing, if coincidental.)

Today I’m excited to announce the latest results of our long-running R&D pipeline: Version 13 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica. Just a few weeks ago it was 1/3 of a century since Mathematica 1.0 was released.
