   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

• 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 / 11 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

LibreCAD mentions (19)

• Looking for a poor man's AutoCad

  LibreCAD, OpenSCAD (more script based and more for solids), FreeCAD. Source: 10 months ago

• If I don't use Windows or Mac and only use Linux, will I run into a lot of compatibility issues?

  CAD options on Linux are more limited than windows or mac but they do exist. The industry standard for 2d CAD files is the .dxf file format. I use LibreCAD. https://librecad.org/ The UI is a little clunky and eccentric in places but it is feature complete for 2d CAD drawings. Source: about 1 year ago

• Windows / MacOS - Home/garden design

  You could also try out free AutoCAD alternatives like libreCAD (2D), or brlCAD (2D&3D, I believe). Source: about 1 year ago

• Everything you need to know about CAD humble bundle

  It seems like a low risk purchase for $1, however, there are free options available too such as https://librecad.org/ . Or see https://www.reddit.com/r/humblebundles/comments/117ki1c/comment/j9v0v37/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 for an older Autocad clone. Beckercad 2D seems like a niche product so I would probably invest my time learning something that is more mainstream. Source: about 1 year ago

• Architectural Software

  For 2d stuff I tend to use Libra cad Https://librecad.org/. Source: over 1 year ago
