Maths students need to learn some scripting/programing language like Python. Basically there is huge gap in understanding maths and implementing maths. That can be reduce by implementing concepts, algorithms in Python like language. Which in fact SAGE! We should start introducing SAGE more and more in Maths community. Use of software in the syllabus will be more effective for under graduates, even K12 students to improve maths understanding and hence students will develop more interest towards Mathematics.
