Abstract :
The World Wide Web is a natural medium for sharing the results of your work with others. However, I created functions in Mathematica, a technical computing language with extensive numerical, graphic and symbolic capabilities. These functions, until now, were available only to other Mathematica users. Compounding the problem was my target audience: a narrow selection of people around the world with an interest in cycling, few of whom would have a Mathematica license. While investigating alternatives with Wolfram Research, I was referred to the developer of one of their new products, MathScript. It solved my problem. By performing the CGI process and running programs written in Mathematica, MathScript provides an interface between Mathematica and a Web browser, and thus worldwide access to Mathematica
