'''Mathematical Software''' is software used to model, analyze or calculate numeric, symbolic or geometric data. | |||
It can be very expensive. Programs like Mathematica,Maple and Matlab | |||
are incredibly powerful, flexible and usually well documented and supported. Their price tags however are a big let down for many people, even if there are cheap versions available for educational purposes . The secondary disadvantages are those caused by the fact that such programs are proprietary. This can also affect or limit a sharing oriented environment like the academic and research fields. | |||
