WOLFRAM

By Name or Index...

Setup

Get a Dataset of animal weights from the Wolfram Data Repository:

In[1]:=1
Out[1]=1

Get a single element

Get the body weight of the item in the first row:

Out[2]=2

Get multiple elements as a Dataset

Get the body weights of the entries in the first and third rows:

Out[3]=3

Get the body weights of the entries in the first to third rows:

Out[4]=4
  • The values returned here are Dataset objects.

Get multiple elements as a List

Apply Normal to get a result as a List:

Out[5]=5

By Selection Criteria...

Setup

Get a Dataset of animal weights from the Wolfram Data Repository:

In[6]:=6
Out[6]=6

Get selected elements as a Dataset

Get the animals whose brain weight is greater than 1000g:

Get the animal with the greatest brain weight:

Out[8]=8

Get the body weight of an African elephant:

Out[9]=9

Get selected elements as a List

Apply Normal to get selected elements as a List:

Out[10]=10

Notes

If a Dataset query yields a list of elements, the value returned is a Dataset object. If a query yields a single object, the naked object is returned. Compare:
