Mathematica Link for Microsoft Excel
Anton Rowe
Episoft, Inc.
There are dozens of useful features in the completely reworked Mathematica Link for
Microsoft Excel. Most of the limitations of the earlier version have been effaced, and
the user interface is much more developed. Among the items at the top of user's
wish list, Mathematica graphics can now be generated inside Excel. Arrays of any
type can be sent and received. Calculations can be interrupted, messages can be received,
and a terminal window for quick communication with the kernel is provided. An easy-to-use Mathematica
Wizard guides users through the process of entering Mathematica functions into a
spreadsheet. For Mathematica programmers, this simply means that their code has the
potential of being used by more than just the Mathematica literate. This session
will provide a brief tour of the new product and illustrate examples of functions written
in Mathematica that are conveniently used inside Excel.
More information on Mathematica Link for
Microsoft Excel is available in the Wolfram Research Store.
