Dear Richard,

You can do:

#+BEGIN_SRC mathematica
f[x_] := x+3;
f[5]
#+END_SRC

Here are explanations: I actually put everything in the SRC block into a
Print[...].

So in the second example, what actually runs is

Print[f[x_] := x+3
f[5]]

This does not return any value. Because what it really does is print the
value of "f[x_] := x+3 f[5]"

Here is the code:

(concat
     (mapconcat ;; define any variables
      (lambda (pair)
(format "%s=%s;"
(car pair)
(org-babel-mathematica-var-to-mathematica (cdr pair))))
      vars "\n") "\nPrint[\n" body "\n]\n")

If anybody has idea to improve it, I will be happy to see and work it out!

Best,
Yi
