Maxima is a fairly complete computer algebra system written in lisp with an emphasis on symbolic computation. It is based on DOE-MACSYMA and licensed under the GPL. Its abilities include symbolic integration, 3D plotting, and an ODE solver.
Maxima is great for a free computer algebra system. It's not as good as Mathematica or Maple, but then again, it's free. It's quite useful as an occasional scratchpad.
used to be Mathematica fan for years -- last year or two i'am using maxima; it's powerfull program, usefull, handy ... tnx to all developers ;) //Aleš Iršič
I used to use Macsyma back in college. It's SO nice to see it hasn't dissappeared!
