   Stable (slow but steady growth)

   I've been using Maxima since my undergraduate (over 10 years), now with Ubuntu20.04 lts, I become a newbie of SageMath. For a small project (both symbolical and numerical), in particular, student lab activities, Maxima has been a powerful tool for analyzing and visualizing data. (The Android version is also fantastic, but the poor keyboard.)

   Mathematica is always enemy/friend. (My coworkers are all Mathematica speakers.)

   🏁 Competitors: Wolfram Mathematica

   👍 Pros:    Easy for cli user|Lithghter

   👎 Cons:    Good for advanced users of computers (cli is sometimes hard for newbie)|Hard to find official references, tutors, etc

• Integral Calculator

  I think the really neat piece of software behind this is maxima (https://maxima.sourceforge.io/), a rather influential computer algebra system of ancient lineage still in use today in more place than you might think. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Rye: Homoiconic dynamic programming language with some new ideas

  In the maxima computer algebra system[1] which was ancestrally based on lisp it has a single quote operator[2] which delays evaluation of something and a "double quote" (which acually two single quotes rather than an actual double quote) operator[3] which asks maxima to evaluate some expression immediately rather than leaving it in symbolic form.[4] [1] https://maxima.sourceforge.io/ [2]... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: Sort Google scholar by citations from your web browser

  A few may know, that google scholar(https://scholar.google.com/) does not offer a feature for arranging the search results based on the number of citations. Several years ago, one developer published a Python code (https://github.com/WittmannF/sort-google-scholar) to handle this. I had been inspired by his work, but I wanted to show the list of... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: Why is Google search unusable lately?

  To that point, https://scholar.google.com/ is still useful. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Is there a data set for GitHub repos associated with academic papers?

  1) find the doi number [1a][1b] 2) find sources that cite the doi number -> google scholar[2][3] 3) filter for 'github' ----- [1a]resolve a doi name : https://dx.doi.org/ [1b]find a doi number : https://answers.lib.iup.edu/faq/31945 [2] : https://scholar.google.com/ [3] : google with "site:http://doi.org/" [4] : finding a doi in document page :... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• What the Google overlords don't want you to see

  Half of those are about science, during my Ph.D., I was told to use scholar.google.com, which works great as far as I can tell. Couple it to sci-hub and you get all the scientific literature you need. Source: 5 months ago

• What the Google overlords don't want you to see

  Scholar.google.com exists also which is what you use for studies. Source: 5 months ago
