OPTIONS:
  -h, -help                  Print help text.
  -c, -code WL               Give Wolfram Language code to execute.
  -f, -file PATH             Give a file containing Wolfram Language code to
                          execute.
  -a, -api URL|UUID          Use an API at the specified URL, or coming from a
                          cloud or local object with the specified UUID.
                          Provide arguments in the form 'key=value'
                          following '-args'.
  -fun, -function WL         Use a function whose arguments are the strings
                          given using '-args' interpreted as the types
                          given using '-signature'
  -o, -cloud [CLOUDBASE]     Execute code in the cloud, using the specified
                          cloud base. By default, cloud base is
                          https://wolframcloud.com
  -l, -local [KERNELPATH]    Execute code locally, using the specified path to
                          the Wolfram Engine kernel. By default, KernelPath
                          uses the most recent version of the Wolfram
                          Language found on the local system.
  --, -args ARGS...          Used with '-api' or '-function' to provide
                          arguments.
  -s, -signature TYPE...     Used with '-function' and '-args' to specify
                          interpreter types for provided arguments.
  -v, -verbose               Print additional information during execution.
  -activate                  Activate the Wolfram Engine through the cloud or
                          with a key.
  -entitlement ID            Activate the Wolfram Engine using on-demand
                          licensing with the given license entitlement ID.
  -authenticate [ID PASS]    Authenticate with the cloud, specifying a
                          particular Wolfram ID and password, and prompting
                          if they are not given. Different authentication
                          can be specified for different clouds.
  -disconnect                Disconnect from the cloud, removing
                          authentication information.
  -configure [KEY=VAL...]    Configure WolframScript by specifying values for
                          particular configuration variable keys. If no
                          keys are given, this prints the current
                          configuration.
  -version                   Print version of WolframScript.
  -username USERNAME         Give username for authentication.
  -password PASSWORD         Give password for authentication.
  -permissionskey KEY        Give a permissions key used to authorize access
                          to a cloud deployed API.
  -k, -noverifypeer          Disable peer certificate verification when
                          interacting with the cloud.
  -timeout SECONDS [VALUE]   Specify the number of seconds to allow for
                          execution. Return value if time is exceeded.
  -charset ENCODING          Use encoding for output. Encodings can be None to
                          output raw bytes, or any entry in
                          $CharacterEncodings except "Unicode". The default
                          is to infer the value from the terminal's
                          language settings.
  -format TYPE               Specify the format in which to give output. Any
                          format understood by Export can be used.
  -print [all]               When running a script, print the result from
                          executing the last line of the script, or each
                          line if all is given.
  -linewise                  Execute code on each line of standard input that
                          is read.
  -script ARGS...            Counterpart to wolfram -script, additionally sets
                          up $ScriptCommandLine.

In[1]:= 2 + 2
Out[1]= 4

In[2]:= ?Plot
Global`Plot

Plot[f, {x, xmin, xmax}] generates a plot of f as x ranges from xmin to xmax.

In[3]:= exit[]

Examples/Usage

Load the MATLAB module:
```
$ module load Mathematica/14.3
```
Unload the module:
```
$ module unload Mathematica/14.3
```
Run a script::
```
$ math -script script.wl
```
Start an interactive session:
```
$ math
```

Notes

math does not support --help or -h like typical Linux commands
Help is accessed inside the kernel using: - ?function - Information[function]
For GUI-based workflows (plots, notebooks), users may need X11 forwarding or the desktop version (Mathematica)
