Description

Advertisement ▼
Mathomatic™ is a portable, command-line computer algebra system (CAS) written entirely in the C programming language. It is free and open source software (FOSS), published under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL version 2.1). The software can automatically solve, differentiate, simplify, combine, and compare algebraic equations, perform standard, complex number, and polynomial arithmetic, etc. It does some calculus and is very easy to compile, learn, and use.

Mathomatic consists of a text-mode, floating point and symbolic math application and library suitable for desktops, handhelds, and embedded systems. It compiles and runs under any operating system with a C compiler, including Linux, Unix, Mac OS X, and MS-Windows. An operating system is not required for using the symbolic math library, and there are no dependencies other than the standard C libraries. The mathematical results should always be correct, simple, and beautiful; if not, please report it to the developers.

FEATURES:

· Solve, simplify, combine, and compare algebraic equations
· Perform calculus transformations
· Help with series analysis
· Perform standard, complex number, and polynomial arithmetic and GCD computations
· Generate efficient C, Java, or Python code from equations

What's new What's new in version 16.0.5

New Release

- Allow use of editline library in Mathomatic, because somehow use of GPL libraries in LGPL code is not allowed, and GNU readline is GPL. I am so confused about this Debian bug#687063: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=687063
- Based on the bug report's information sources, it appears he is saying the truth about this license issue, so I will have to upload new versions of Mathomatic with editline instead of readline to Debian. The only noticeable difference should be it doesn't save the history between Mathomatic sessions. I will comply with all that request it, though most distributions do not include editline, which has no major licensing restrictions. Readline is still perfectly usable and good as before, you just have to link it in yourself.
- Going to have to make a new release already, 2 days after the last one, so I can upload this readline licensing fix to Debian by linking with editline.
