Mathematica (MMA) is known for its comprehensive library that covers almost everything you need in mathematics, physics and engineering. While I’m a big fan of MMA and MMA released its machine learning (ML) features long time ago, I used to use Python for ML practices because Python is more widely accepted by the data science community and thus, provides better supports. However, it has been 4 years after MMA 11’s first release, the ML features in MMA are getting much better than before. So, I’ve spent sometime playing with MMA ML and made such a reference for later conveniences.

Today is a special day called “palindromic day”, as you may have seen in the news. A palindromic day is a day, whose date, when written in certain forms, is a palindromic number.

This note records some useful tricks I learnt in the past years of using Mathematica (MMA). MMA provides a very powerful language system that realizes almost any functionality one would image. However, such a huge library means large learning cost.
