Many programming languages include libraries to do more complicated math. You can do statistics, numerical analysis or handle big numbers. One topic many programming languages have difficulty with is ...

Python allows free creation of plots, unlike expensive, stagnant graphing calculators. Import NumPy and Matplotlib for basic linear and polynomial plots in Python. Seaborn lets you make statistical ...

Most linear algebra courses start by considering how to solve a system of linear equations. \[ \begin{align} a_{0,0}x_0 + a_{0,1}x_0 + \cdots a_{0,n-1}x_0 & = b_0 ...

In a recent write-up, [David Delony] explains how he built a Wolfram Mathematica-like engine with Python. Core to the system is SymPy for symbolic math support. [David] said being able to work with ...

I have covered several different software packages for doing scientific computation in Linux Journal, but I haven't spent as much time describing available libraries and the kind of work that can be ...

I've always liked the idea of math, but doing it by hand has been another matter. My mental CPU seems to go to 100% during hand calculation. Hand calculators are good but Python libraries are even ...
