Sage: A Free, Open-source Complex Math Tool

Posted December 10, 2007 9:23 AM

From TGDaily.com - Latest News (All sections):

A former assistant professor from Harvard, now at UofW, Dr. William Stein, and several students, have created a new open-source complex math solving tool called Sage. It is an Internet-based graphical tool which allows the user to do basically anything mathematically, from "mapping a 12-dimensional object to calculating rainfall patterns under global warming."

There may be product branding issues to resolve here, because Sage is also the name of a popular business accounting software package.
