So other languages have been about, there is a core language.
It really is kind of wrapped around the operations that a computer intrinsically does.
Maybe people add libraries for this or that.
But the goal of Wolfram Language is to have the language itself
be able to cover this sort of very broad range of things that show up in the world.
And that means that, you know, there are 6,000 primitive functions in the Wolfram language that cover things.
You know, I could probably pick a random here.
I'm going to pick just because just for fun, I'll pick, let's take a random sample of all the things that we have here.
So let's just say random sample of 10 of them and let's see what we get.
Wow, okay, so these are really different things.
These are all functions.
Boolean converts, okay, that's a thing for converting between different types of Boolean expressions.
Yeah, right.
