I Read up on some of my options, found that I can run maxima as a 
subprocess using:

IO.popen("maxima")

but how do I pass in arguments and get a response? After i start 
"maxima" i should be able to run "1 + 1;" and return the answer of "2"?


Also, Is popen the best way to go about running this process?
