C/C++ Language Interface

Mathematica supports several levels of interfacing to C and C++ programs. You can create "installable" C programs where C functions are directly connected to Mathematica functions. You can use C to call Mathematica through MathLink and get full access to its capabilities. And you can create C program fragments and modify C source code.

Calling C Programs from Mathematica »

Install — load an installable MathLink program

. tm — template file for connecting C and Mathematica functions

mcc , mprep — scripts for building MathLink programs
