For example, I am trying to understand how Reap[] and Sow[] work in Mathematica. On the one hand, it's not really a question about mathematics per se. But on the other, it is a question that some of the math wizards here might be able to help me with.

SO, are questions about Mathematica appropriate here? And if not, is there a StackExchange site where they are on-topic?

There is a proposal for a Mathematica-specific StackExchange site, but it does not yet exist. – Isaac Oct 12 '10 at 16:31

While we allow questions about mathematical software, the Reap[] and Sow[] functions are not related to mathematics, but are programming tools for generating a list. Therefore, it is more suitable to ask on Stack Overflow for this question.

The Mathematica site mentioned in the comment above is now in public beta, and is (IMHO) the best source there is (better than Mathematica "support") for Mathematica-related questions.
