The Wolfram Language, a general

rule-based programming[4] and can employ arbitrary structures and data.[4]

It includes built-in functions for generating and running

Turing machines, creating graphics and audio, analyzing 3D models, matrix manipulations, and solving differential equations. It is extensively documented.[5]

It is bundled with the system software installed on every

CES 2014, also integrates the language.[8][9] The language will also be integrated in the Unity game engine.[10]

Naming

The language was officially named in June 2013 although, as the programming language of Mathematica, it has been in use in various forms for over 30 years.[3][11] Before this it was internally referred to by several names, such as "M" and "Wolfram Language". Other possible names considered to become the official name include "Lingua" and "Express".[4]
