Description

There are two main ways to transfer data into and out of Mathematica:
  • MathLink (including J/Link, .NET/Link, Database Access, Web Services)
  • File/Stream operations (including Import/Export, Read/Write)
This makes Import/Export a major component allowing Mathematica to interact with the "outside world". Some of the many uses include:
  • Transferring data to or from other applications.
  • Manipulate and process data to generate reports.
  • Publishing documents. (HTML, TeX, XML, etc.)
  • Generating webMathematica graphics and typesetting.
  • Manipulating raster graphics (Digital Image Processing).
