Your main options (listed in alphabetical order for the sake of neutrality) are Axiom, Maxima and Reduce. Axiom and Maxima are packaged by Debian. Reduce was recently released as free/open-source software, thus it hasn't been packaged as yet. (http://reduce-algebra.sourceforge.net/). I haven't investigated these packages in detail other than to confirm that they all support linear output formats as alternatives to the spatial output of fractions, superscripts/subscripts etc., which tends to be the default. Axiom and Reduce can generate TeX output. Furthermore, Maxima and Reduce have Emacs support. All three systems can generate graphs. Sage is an amalgam of other packages, including Maxima, with a Python interface. The Debian package is very old and out of date. Disclaimer: the above observations are based on my limited research - I don't need these tools, so I haven't carried out further investigations. I have, however, had occasion to answer this kind of question on mailing lists before, which is why I carried out some basic investigations. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
