Physics & Chemistry: Data and Computation

The Wolfram Language provides seamless access to the curated and continuously updated Wolfram Knowledgebase—which includes a wide range of types of data for physics and chemistry. Free-form linguistics provide a convenient mechanism for accessing entities and data. The Wolfram Language also has built-in support for many common types of computations in physics and chemistry.
