About Sage Live
Sage is a comprehensive open source Math software package. It contains several other open source programs to combine their strengths. Sage offers a nice, integrating notebook, which runs in the webbrowser. It has many advanced options like direct Latex export and is well suited to solve mathematic problems, starting at highschool level up to top research level. Sage Live intends to be a smart platform for the distribution of Sage. It aims to be:
- * easy and flexible to install
* has maximum functionality on restricted space (upper limit is 700 MB)
* offers possibility to install additional packages
* has reasonable documentation
* has comparably low hardware requirements
* reasonable localisation Support
One of the nice features of sage is, that you can use it as a distribution of free software packages, you can start R, maxima, GAP, singular, IPython, Python (with numpy, scipy, sympy libraries) from terminal or even from the menu
Menu - Sage
Menu - Sage Components
Having said all that, I hope it is useful and it helps to broaden the potential userbase of sage and other free scientific software.
Sage Lite
Sage is such a huge package. One reason is that is comes as a complete development package. I (with some help and hints from the sage developers) stripped out lots of stuff and got a light version. Most functionality is there, also direct access to sage components like R, maxima and the python bundle (numpy, sympy, pylab ...). Only thing I found which doesn't work beside developement mode is the creation of "cython" code.
In the meantime there are 2 versions from sage lite available. Both are build with my slim package of sage 4.6. The first one is sagelite-511-46-a1.iso, which has the usual puppy functionality. The second one sage-lite-serverb1.iso has some of the puppy functions removed, but has the additional feature to run a multiuser sage server over https under restricted user permissions. This is suited for demo purposes, or for restricted classroom or workshop use to present sage.
Selected old versions
First version based on Puppy 431 and Sage 431 (coincidence)
