sci-mathematics Computer Algebra system, descendent of Macsyma. Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions, including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, and vectors, matrices, and tensors. Maxima produces high precision results by using exact fractions and arbitrarily long floating point representations, and can plot functions and data in two and three dimensions. Compile maxima with GNU CLISP (dev-lisp/clisp) Compile maxima with Clozure Common Lisp (dev-lisp/clozurecl) Compile maxima with CMU Common Lisp (dev-lisp/cmucl) Compile maxima with Embeddable Common Lisp (dev-lisp/ecls) Compile maxima with Embeddable Common Lisp (dev-lisp/ecls) Compile maxima with GNU Common Lisp (dev-lisp/gcl) Compile maxima with Clozure Common Lisp (former OpenMCL, dev-lisp/closurecl) Compile maxima with Steel Bank Common Lisp (dev-lisp/sbcl)
