Take NCFPS for a Test Drive
If you already have Mathematica, the quickest way to try out NCFPS is to follow the steps in our installation section to install and load the package.
If you don't have Mathematica already but would like to take NCFPS for a spin, fret not! There are a few options available.
To get started with NCFPS with minimal setup and installation, you can sign up for a free Wolfram Cloud account. Wolfram Cloud allows you to run Mathematica notebooks in the cloud, either through your web browser or a mobile app.
Once you sign up for an account and login, you can launch a New Notebook.
In the notebook paste and execute the commands from our installation section to load in the package.
Then compute away!
Another free option for trying out NCFPS is the Wolfram Engine. The Wolfram Engine overview page provides instructions for how to download and install on your local machine.
NOTE: While it does use the same computational kernel as Mathematica and Wolfram Cloud, the Wolfram Engine does not include the feature-rich notebook interface. Wolfram Engine is accessible out-of-the-box from the command line, though with a little extra work it is also possible to use the Wolfram Engine with more elaborate interfaces such as Jupyter Notebooks.
Once installed, the Wolfram Engine can be invoked from the command-line:
> WolframScript
NOTE: If it is your first time launching WolframScript you may be asked to provide a Wolfram ID and/or Wolfram Engine license. Both can be obtained for free at the Wolfram Engine page.
Once launched, you can use the commands from our installation section to install and load the NCFPS package.
