  2. Maxima (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxima_(software)

    Maxima (/ ˈ m æ k s ɪ m ə /) is a powerful software package for performing computer algebra calculations in mathematics and the physical sciences. It is written in Common Lisp and runs on all POSIX platforms such as macOS , Unix , BSD , and Linux , as well as under Microsoft Windows and Android .

    The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations.

    KCalc, Linux based scientific calculator; Maxima: a computer algebra system which bignum integers are directly inherited from its implementation language Common Lisp. In addition, it supports arbitrary-precision floating-point numbers, bigfloats. Maple, Mathematica, and several other computer algebra software include arbitrary-precision arithmetic.

    The first popular computer algebra systems were muMATH, Reduce, Derive (based on muMATH), and Macsyma; a copyleft version of Macsyma is called Maxima. Reduce became free software in 2008. [ 3 ] Commercial systems include Mathematica [ 4 ] and Maple , which are commonly used by research mathematicians, scientists, and engineers.

  7. Tensor software - Wikipedia

    Maxima [25] is a free open source general purpose computer algebra system which includes several packages for tensor algebra calculations in its core distribution. It is particularly useful for calculations with abstract tensors, i.e., when one wishes to do calculations without defining all components of the tensor explicitly.
