Mathematica has been updated to version 6.0.1 for both the student edition and the faculty/staff edition. Downloads are available for Windows, Macintosh and Linux. Wolfram considers this a minor update and includes the following fixes and enhancements:
* Enhanced automatic and manual proxy settings for
internet connectivity
* More extensive documentation on legacy Mathematica
functions
* Significantly improved MathLink performance on Mac and
Unix systems
* Improved performance of various Import and Export
converters
* Faster ListPlot, ListPlot3D and Plot3D for large
numbers of points
* Improved help system initialization
* Extensions to automatic file type recognition for
Import
* Complete support for scaled FontSize values
* Enhancements to Table, CSV, TSV, and MathML import
* Evaluate Notebook menu item, and Magnification submenu
* Additional Mathematica function examples and tutorials
* Updates to curated data
Building on two decades of world-class algorithm and software development, Mathematica 6 represents a dramatic breakthrough that immensely broadens Mathematica's scope and applicability and redefines the very way we think about computation. Made possible by Mathematica's unique symbolic architecture, Mathematica 6 introduces a sweeping unification of language and interface concepts that makes possible a new level of automation in algorithmic computation, interactive manipulation and dynamic presentation as well as a whole new way of interacting with the world of data.
