Frm <https://sagemath.org>: *SageMath* is a free open-source <https://github.com/sagemath/sage/> mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It builds on top of many existing open-source packages: NumPy <https://numpy.org/>, SciPy <https://scipy.org/>, matplotlib <https://matplotlib.org/>, Sympy <https://www.sympy.org/>, Maxima <http://maxima.sourceforge.net/>, GAP <https://www.gap-system.org/>, FLINT <http://www.flintlib.org/>, R <http://www.r-project.org/> and many more <https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/spkg>. Access their combined power through a common, Python-based language or directly via interfaces or wrappers. "Mission: *Creating a viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica and Matlab*." Distro support has generally not worked well due lack of universal support for the required versions of the above and other packages. Many users are associated with "large enterprises" and stuck with the linux distro their employer provides, so conda forge or building from source are the most common ways to get it: See: < https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/index.html>. I have done both on Fedora. -- George N. White III
