That’s actually a misconception: Apple has allowed interpreted languages (e.g. Python, as in Pythonista) to tun on iOS/iPadOS for several years now. The Wolfram Language is definitely an interpreted language and therefore would not fall afoul of their rules.
- 7thaccount 7y agoIt's also a multi-gigabyte installation full of Java, C, and Wolfram code. It is huge....so I'm sure there are some difficulties.
- qubex 7y agoThe fact that they’ve “tidied up” their command-line release (somewhat) raises my hopes by a marginal amount.
- geocar 7y ago> It's also a multi-gigabyte installation full of Java, C, ... Sounds like the Facebook app. I think people are okay with gigabyte apps now.
- 7thaccount 7y agoYeah, but it is like 15-20 GB if I recall correctly. It's been a few years, but I was like daaaaang.
- tikej 7y agoNah, it's around 8GB that can be trimmed to ~5GB if some example files and graphs are deleted from the documentation.
- abdullahkhalids 7y agoIt is about 6GB on my linux system.
- jxy 7y agoI have been using the engine for almost a year since they announced it. Without the notebook interface, it's only 1.6 GB. $ du -h -d3 pkg/Wolfram/ 3.1M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript/bin 3.1M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript 5.0K pkg/Wolfram/man/man1 5.5K pkg/Wolfram/man 13K pkg/Wolfram/doc/wolframscript 14K pkg/Wolfram/doc 40K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Executables 30M pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/AddOns 1.6G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/SystemFiles 10K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Configuration 1.6G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0 1.6G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine 1.6G pkg/Wolfram/
- 7thaccount 7y agoOther people below are showing 6-8 GB on their systems, so it's lower than what I recall, but still higher than your figure I would normally bet. Are you only counting 1.6 once?
- jxy 7y agoWhat do you mean? Should I count 1.6 multiple times? I just realized that this number is after ZFS compression. Here is the apparent size, $ du -h -A -d3 pkg/Wolfram/ 5.0M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript/bin 5.0M pkg/Wolfram/WolframScript 8.5K pkg/Wolfram/man/man1 9.0K pkg/Wolfram/man 16K pkg/Wolfram/doc/wolframscript 16K pkg/Wolfram/doc 30K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Executables 46M pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/AddOns 2.9G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/SystemFiles 2.0K pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0/Configuration 3.0G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine/12.0 3.0G pkg/Wolfram/WolframEngine 3.0G pkg/Wolfram/ Actually the downloaded file is a little over 1 GB, $ stat -f "%z %N" Downloads/WolframEngine_12.0.0_LINUX.sh 1177035547 Downloads/WolframEngine_12.0.0_LINUX.sh
