Look guys, in 1999 Bill Schelter released the DOE version of Macsyma he'd been solo maintaining for 20 years called Maxima, and in the 26 years since a small band of maintainers many of whom were contributors to the original thing at MIT have been maintaining and enhancing it. And Y'ALL just SLEEPING on this shit like it doesn't exist. How many of y'all even have it up in your computer? Install that shit and start doing math.

The gui version is pretty clunky tho, I prefer running sympy even if that's also pretty stilted.

I do have the Android Maxima app installed on my tablet, but it has been years since I tried to use it for something serious; you have to do everything in one sitting.
