Analytica User Guide > Chapter 8: Creating and Editing Definitions

This chapter introduces the tools for creating and editing mathematical models by giving each variable a formula that defines how to compute its value in its definition. The definition of a variable can be a simple number, text, a probability distribution, or a more complicated expression. It can also be a list or table of numbers or other expressions. Subsequent chapters present more details about using mathematical expressions, arrays, and probability distributions.
