mathplot	0.8.3	GPL	Interactive function grapher	mathplot is a GUI frontend for interactive graphing of functions. mathplot2ps is a batch program to generate PostScript output. You can have both equations (y=f(x) or f(x,y)=g(x)) and inequations. For inequations, mathplot hatches the inter- section. For example, with y>0, y<x and x<2 it hatches the solution which is a triangle. You can name a point, anywhere or on a function. You can ask for the tangent of a function. As it uses a symbolic library, you can enter functions like "x+1/y=2". Can find root (zeros), extrema (even symbolically, some- times) and intersection of 2 functions. mathplot exports in PostScript so that you can print eas- ily, and with the reference mark (O, i, j). You can save and load files. mathplot2ps can transform these files into PostScript. It's written in OCaml using the Tk toolkit for the GUI frontend
maxima	5.9.0	GPL	Maxima Symbolic Computation Program	Maxima is a full symbolic computation program. It is full featured doing symbolic manipulation of polynomials, matrices, rational functions, integration, Todd-coxeter, graphing, bigfloats. It has a symbolic debugger source level debugger for maxima code. Maxima is based on the original Macsyma developed at MIT in the 1970's. It is quite reliable, and has good garbage collection, and no memory leaks. It comes with hundreds of self tests.

octave	2.1.53	GPL	GNU Octave -- a high-level language for numerical computations	GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language. Octave has extensive tools for solving common numerical linear algebra problems, finding the roots of nonlinear equations, integrating ordinary functions, manipulating polynomials, and integrating ordinary differential and differential-algebraic equations. It is easily extensible and customizable via user-defined functions written in Octave's own language, or using dynamically loaded modules written in C++, C, Fortran, or other languages.
