Maxima</ulink>:
Maxima is a symbolic computation program.
As the link above describes it, "Maxima is a Common Lisp implementation of
MIT's Macsyma system for computer based algebra".
George White has maintained and extended Maxima for the last 18 years,
but has formal permission from DOE, to release this under GPL as a derivative
work science 1998. I am looking forward to installing this and yacas above
to check out their symbolic computation capabilities.
Maxima is a symbolic computation program. The above link describes it
as follows, "Maxima is a descendant of DOE Macsyma, which had its origins
in the late 1960s at MIT. It is the only system based on that effort still
publicly available and with an active user community, thanks to its open
source nature. Macsyma was the first of a new breed of computer algebra
systems, leading the way for programs such as Maple and Mathematica. This
particular variant of Macsyma was maintained by William Schelter from 1982
until he passed away in 2001. In 1998 he obtained permission to release
the source code under GPL".
