Wolfram

Since the version 14.1, installation of Wolfram Mathematica was included in the installation of Wolfram.

Installation

Install it as on a usual x86/arm machine.

Modifying the scripts

Under the path to install (such as the normal installation path /usr/local/Wolfram/Wolfram/14.2 for version 14.2), find the folder Executables, for all scripts in it (math, MathKernel, mcc, wolfram, WolframKernel, wolframnb, WolframNB), modify them as shown below:

at the beginning of those scripts

    ...
        case `uname -s` in
                Linux)
                        case `uname -m` in
                                i?86)
                                        SystemIDList="Linux";;
                                x86_64)
                                        if [ "${_SystemID}" = "Linux" ]; then
                                                SystemIDList="Linux Linux-x86-64"
                                        else
                                                SystemIDList="Linux-x86-64 Linux"
                                        fi;;
                                armv?l)
                                        SystemIDList="Linux-ARM";;
                                aarch64)
                                        SystemIDList="Linux-ARM64 Linux-ARM";;
                                loongarch64)
                                        SYstemIDList="Linux-x86_64 Linux";; 
                                *)
                                        SystemIDList="Unknown";;
                        esac;;
                *)
                        SystemIDList="Unknown";;
        esac
    ...

add a case for loongarch64, such as

                                ...
                                aarch64)
                                        SystemIDList="Linux-ARM64 Linux-ARM";;
                                loongarch64)
                                        SystemIDList="Linux-x86-64 Linux";;
                                *)
                                        SystemIDList="Unknown";;
                                ...

after checking your $PATH includes /usr/local/bin, run math or wolfram in your console to launch Wolfram Cli interface.

resbi@la464v:~ $ wolfram
Wolfram 14.2.0 Kernel for Linux x86 (64-bit)
Copyright 1988-2024 Wolfram Research, Inc.

In[1]:=

After updated your LATX to version 1.6, you could run WolframNB or wolframnb in your console to launch Wolfram Notebook.

Compatibility

Only listing tested versions.

Version	Release/Upgrade Date	Compatibility	Notes
14.2	2025.1.23	Compatible	Wolfram Notebook runs normally with LATX 1.6.
14.0	2024.1.9	Compatible	Cli interface runs normally, Wolfram Notebook wasn't been tested.

Notices

Under the installation path of your Wolfram, at the same level of Executables, there's a folder called SystemFiles, find a folder called Java inside of it, and you'll see a folder called Linux-x86-64, it's a JDK21 binary package for x86_64. You could replace it with the Loongarch native version of OpenJDK-21, remember to rename the folder to Linux-x86-64. By which you will gain around 10% of performance boost.
