However, I disagree with the sentence ' As far as I can tell WolframAlpha Notebook Edition allows a user to input regular Mathematica commands and execute them' - Strangely enough, it is true only using cloud together with a basic plan (but not together with home plan.).įinally, here there is some additional information: Change default cell type of Wolfram|Alpha Notebook Edition to Input There is also an interesting discussion here: What is the difference between Mathematica and WolframAlpha Notebook Edition? I still do not understand these differences.ĮDIT 2: It seems the problem I am trying to explain is the same discussed here

When I use the plan basic I have to press 'shift+enter' to input for the Wolfram Language, whereas with plan home I have to press just 'enter', like in Wolfram Alpha. It seems to me that the problem is simply in the assignment to variable res, whose name should be formed by a single character ( r works for example), but I do not understand why nor how to change this behaviour on the desktop version.ĮDIT: Using the cloud version/option with a browser, I have the same problem with the plan home (whereas, as I wrote above, there is no problem with the plan basic). The displayed error for the former expression is ' No Wolfram Alpha translation found'. I do not understand why the following simple expression is accepted using a browser (cloud option), but is not accepted using the installed software (desktop option) with the plan basic of Wolfram Alpha Notebook Edition (please see ): res = Minimize
