 Maxima
Is a Computer Algebra System based on Lisp. It has a long history and is among the leading Free and Open source math projects. It needs gcl (Gnu Common lisp), gnuplot for graphics and tcl and tk (from packagemanger?) for the included basic IDE xmaxima. DOWNLOAD for new Puppy 5.3 slacko : maxima-5.25.1-i486.pet maxima_DOC-5.25.1-i486.pet Alternativ: math-slacko.sfs New Saluki the package for 431 seems to work - even with wxMaxima Gui (gcl not needed) MAXIMA HOMEPAGE ARCHIV: There is an older package made in Puppy 431 MISC: maxima is also the CAS engine in the sage package. It can be invoked from the sage subshell (sage -sh, maxima) BUILD: I made a basic buildscript  Take care, emil

Emil, I first heard about Maxima in one of your posts. After the ten-minute wxMaxima tutorial on Sourceforge (http://andrejv.github.com/wxmaxima/tutorials/10minute.zip) I was hooked. I am about to retire and lose my free access to Mathematica--I won't miss it now! Thanks for making Maxima easily available in Puppy. Wognath |

I tested maxima in the new Saluki. The new package of 5.25.1 I made for slacko won't run, but the older package I made on 431 seems to work fine - even with wxMaxima GUI download and install maxima-5.20.1-i486.pet wxGTK-2.8.9-unicode.pet wxMaxima-0.8.2-i386.pet |
