   SageMath's goal is to provide a viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica, and Matlab

   I started SageMath in 2004 to provide a FOSS alternative to expensive commercial mathematics software. Sage is Python-based and has had around 600 volunteer contributors. The project has also received millions of dollars in support from grants around the world, and has a very active developer community.

   This site is about Software as a Service, and there are at least two easy ways to use Sage online as a service:

   https://cocalc.com and https://sagecell.sagemath.org/

   🏁 Competitors: Wolfram Mathematica, MATLAB, Maple, Magma

• The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

  There's Mathics, a subset of the language implemented in Python, but unfortunately after the main author of that was hired by Wolfram, the project seems to have basically died. Still fun for what it is. https://mathics.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• suggestion for final yr project

  You could try to write more Mathematica functions into SymPy. In other words, contribute to the Mathics project (https://mathics.org/). Source: 10 months ago

• Launching Version 13.1 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

  Thank you for mentioning Mathics, https://mathics.org/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Does anyone really like what Mathematica achieves, but hates the syntax?

  Mathics is probably the best bet for this in the long term. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Why the Wolfram Language Is (Like) Open Source

  I'm one of the authors that spent years building SageMath; indeed, the goal of our project is to create a viable free open source alternative to Mathematica (etc.). There's an interesting discussion of actual attempts to create open source implementations of the Wolfram Language in Wikipedia under "Implementations" (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfram_Language). The first attempt was 30 years ago by... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Did studying proof based math topics e.g. analysis make you a better programmer?

  I received a Ph.D. In pure math (number theory) from Berkeley, and then worked as an academic mathematician for 20 years, so wrote a few dozen research papers and some books. My ability to write software for doing mathematics was obviously better as a result of studying mathematics, e.g., I started SageMath (https://sagemath.org) and wrote a big chunk of it. Now I mostly do full stack web development (I... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• How do I get this calculator to give me the derivative?

  You could also try sagemath (sagemath.org), available for window, mac & linux for free. Source: about 1 year ago

• Are there any good free numeric computing environments?

  SageMath gets my vote. I use it to compute simplicial objects that turn out to be infinitely categories. https://sagemath.org SageMath includes most of the python libraries already mentioned, and much more. Source: over 1 year ago

  I am a fan of this site (and of this site's tutorial in particular). I would also recommend this site. The SageMath site has some good tutorials too. Source: over 1 year ago
