Обработка внешних данных
Mathematica может оперировать не только с числами, но и с данными любого типа.
Считывание всех элементов словаря.
data=ReadList["dictionary.dat",String];
Выбор первых 40 слов в словаре.
Take[data,40] {"a","AAA","AAAS","Aarhus","Aaron","ABA","Ababa", "aback","abacus","abalone","abandon", "abase","abash", "abate","abbas","abbe","abbey","abbot","Abbott", "abbreviate","abc", "abdicate","abdomen","abdominal", "abduct","Abe","abed","Abel","Abelian","Abelson", "Aberdeen","Abernathy","aberrant","aberrate", "abet","abetted","abetting","abeyance", "abeyant", "abhorred"}
Выбор слов, которые являются палиндромами и содержат более двух букв.
Select[data,(#==StringReverse[#] && StringLength[#]>2)&]
{"AAA","ABA","ala","AMA","ana","bib","bob","bub","CDC", "civic","dad","deed","did", "DOD","dud","eke","ere", "eve","ewe","eye","gag","gig","gog","huh","iii", "level", "madam","minim","mum","non","noon","nun","pap", "PDP","peep","pep","pip","poop","pop","pup", "radar", "refer","rever","rotor","sis","s's","tat","teet", "tenet","tit","TNT","toot","tot","wow"}
Эта команда находит длины всех слов в словаре.
wordLengths=Map[StringLength,data];
Подсчет общего числа слов равной длины.
Table[Count[wordLengths,i],{i,Max[wordLengths]}] {26,131,775,2152,3093,3793,3929,3484,2969,1883,1052, 542,260,102,39,15,6,4,0,1,2,1}
График распределения количества слов в словаре по длинам.
