Can't find an installed program - mathematica

I recently installed Wolfram Mathematica as a .sh file. I ran it using bash and it took me through installation. It said that the installation directory should be

/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.1

and my scripts would be placed in

/usr/local/bin

It then said installation complete.

I typed

mathematica

into the terminal and it returned

mathematica: command not found

I have looked for the directory /usr/local/Wolfram and it does not exist and I have rebooted my computer. I looked at this question and 'which' has not helped me with keywords 'mathematica' or 'wolfram'. How do I find the program and run it?

For your case:

ls -l /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.1

gives

ls: cannot access /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.1: No such file or directory

This leads to conclusion that some error happen and you don't really install it.

so rerun the script again as mentioned here

sudo bash installer.sh

and follow instructions carefully and its better to keep the default settings
