   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

• Why the AI Boom Is a Windfall for Tiny Anguilla

  Except for https://tcl.tk/ of course! - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Lua, a Misunderstood Language

  So Lua is the new Tcl. A lightweight scripting language designed to be embedded in other programs. Then I went and looked at http://tcl.tk and it appears the current maintainers of Tcl forgot why it exists as well. ;-) Everyone hated Tcl back in the day for similar reasons. Too lightweight, no serious language features, etc... Maybe we should just use Scheme. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• When embedding Lua into your C++ game, do you prefer sol2 or just the lua 5.4 library? Why?

  Tcl (https://tcl.tk/) is actually pretty good, though I doubt it reaches the speeds Lua can. For modding, it may be enough. Source: almost 2 years ago

• TCL/TK

  The main site at https://tcl.tk has lots of resources. Source: almost 2 years ago

• how to build linux apps with GUI?

  If you're feeling bored try https://tcl.tk ;P. Source: over 2 years ago
