Light syntax parser for Mathematica? I would recommend nx as it has much better performance, especially with a slow connection! |

Wolfram Workbench - Mathematica Development Alternatives @su1 I always had problems with random java errors popping up. For me this definitely improved with newer eclipse versions. Still crashes sometimes though. |

How to memoize a function with Options? @oops... I checked the results against the original post, and they are the same. You are correct of course. |

How to memoize a function with Options? Of course what Leonid did is much better... :) |

An issue regarding Eigenvalues function I think this is indeed what the post claims. @randomized starting values: It is very interesting for me that you say that, as it confirms a suspicion I had a few years back, regarding eigenvalue computation in Matlab where you could actually see this behavior. I just never followed up on that. |

An issue regarding Eigenvalues function @makmaak Which Mathematica version are you using? FWIW I also get 0. with V 9.0.1 under Linux 64bit. |

An issue regarding Eigenvalues function Just to elaborate on @rcollyer's comment: You can get rid of the small non-zero terms by using Chop or by using higher precision (see SetPrecision for example). |

A deterministic function to generate a random number @Szabolcs I just did a quick test for whiteness using Ljung-Box test (and another test using periodograms whos name I don't know) on a 50k sample created by this method and it looks good. (I did the test in Matlab so I can't post the code.) Didn't test for uniformity though. |

A deterministic function to generate a random number I have to go with Szabolcs here. If the Mathematica developers have done their job right then this will do what the OP is asking for. If they haven't, the other approaches may not be curing that problem either (or may even be worse). |

How to find the name of the current function A bit OT, but I always wondered: How does the magic behind OptionValue work? |

Downvalues vs. Scoping for Functions Wow... I wasn't aware that Module is so much slower! |

Fastest way to test if a numerical array has complex elements @LeonidShifrin Is there a reason why this use of Return is not documented (except on the refpage on Return::nofunc)? |

Where is KeyEventTranslations.tr in Mathematica 9? Was the edit before or after my comment? Or in other words: Was I really to stupid to read? :) |

Where is KeyEventTranslations.tr in Mathematica 9? I guess that's in OSX right? Probably you should clarify that somewhere. Also, isn't it maybe in the .app bundle? (It's been a while since I used Mathematica under OSX) |

Function argument to default under certain condition Very sneaky! I like it :) |

Function argument to default under certain condition Maybe you're right... I was wondering the same. I thought he tried to avoid defining two distinct DownValues. Anyway +1 because that would have been my answer too. |

Function argument to default under certain condition Or equivalently f[x_] := f[0];f[x_?NonNegative] := (x - 1)^2 + 5 but I think that's what the OP wants to avoid. |
