Hello,

As far as I can find, there is no babel support for Mathematica. So I wrote
one and share it in case other people are interested:

https://github.com/tririver/wy-els/blob/master/ob-mathematica.el

It is also discussed in this blog
http://cosmosimple.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/evaluate-mathematica-code-in-emacs-org.html


While writing this extension, I have a question: How to add font-lock mode
in org code blocks? I had a read of ob-C and ob-python code and didn't find
out how they do font-lock.

Note that the font lock support for Mathematica is available as mma-mode at
https://github.com/skaslev/emacs.d/blob/master/progmodes/mma.el

For my case in a .m file I have font lock from mma.el, but not src code
blocks.

Best wishes,
Yi

Nice, thanks for sharing!

(By the way, you should fix the .el header, it says that the file is
part of Emacs while it's not.)

(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)

Shouldn't that be enabled by default, now, as there so many users who
seems to be unaware of that?

Or is there a fear of impacts on overall performance?

Well, I'm all for it.

No, I don't think so.

Can you create a separate thread and poll the user for whether they
want this to be the default for the next major release?

Thanks!

Sorry I thought it was general GPL... Now it is updated. Thank you for
pointing that out!

> (setq org-src-fontify-natively t)

Yes, I already set this. But curiously the Mathematica code is still not
highlighted like other codes. I wonder there may be some non-standard
things inside mma.el (the Mathematica package file major mode) then?

Best,
Yi

I don't think so, you may just have to check that the mode defined in
mma.el is automatically boundled with .m files -- which is not the case
with a default Emacs installation, where .m files are open with
objc-mode.

I already have this line in my configuration file:

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.m\\'" . mma-mode))

Now I have

(1) If I open a .m file, there is font lock. Thus the problem shouldn't be
binding between mma.el and .m files.
(2) If I insert a src block of C or python code in org mode, there is font
lock. Thus the problem shouldn't be org-src-fontify-natively (and I checked
it is indeed t).

This is why I am confused. Actually I don't badly need this feature. Just
it would be a little better to have things work properly.

Best,
Yi

What happen if you C-c ' on a .m block?

Ah, now the problem appears. It says "No such language mode:
mathematica-mode".

So there is a mismatch between the name mathematica (which I used as name
in org-babel extension) and the name mma-mode (which is provided by
mma.el).

However, as auto-mode-alist suggests (where there is ("\\.m\\'" .
mma-mode), and no entry with mathematica-mode), I still have no idea
why org-edit-special looks for mathematica-mode instead of mma-mode.

Now it worked. I added (add-to-list 'org-src-lang-modes '("mathematica" .
"mma")). After that font lock and edit source works. Thank @Bastien for the
help!

I recently saw this posting about org support for Mathematica. Thanks for writing this! 

Unfortunately, while I can get it to work for simple things (e.g., 2+3), even slightly more complex things don't seem to work. For example, suppose I'd like to define a function f(x) = x + 3, and then calculate f(5). In a MMA notebook, if I type

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

I get the answer 8. If I try the same code in an org-mode code block, here's what happens:

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

#+RESULTS:
: Null

Am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks very much.

Richard Stanton

I wonder if this is an output vs value issue on the return of the
block. If you set :results output does anything change? or, is there a
way to specify a return value? or specifically print something?

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

Thanks. After a bit of experimentation, I found that you can have a block outputting several lines, but you need to manually add commas and carriage returns, e.g.,

#+BEGIN_SRC mathematica :results output
f[x_] := 3*x^2+3;
f[8], "\n",
D[f[x],x]
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: 195
: 6*x
