Work with numerical expression data. Manipulate and modify differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, polynomials, and sets, lists, vectors, matrices, and various tensors.
The 5.46 version of Maxima for Mac was available to download on the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this app available. The program lies within System Tools, more precisely File Managers.
We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. The most popular versions of the tool are 5.3 and 5.1. You can set up Maxima on Mac OS X 10.5 or later. The application's installer is commonly called wxMaxima-0.8.2-Maxima-5.18.dmg. This free Mac app was originally produced by Maxima Team.
From the developer:
Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions, including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, polynomials, and sets, lists, vectors, matrices, and tensors. Maxima yields high precision numeric results by using exact fractions, arbitrary precision integers, and variable precision floating point numbers.
You may want to check out more Mac applications, such as Volume Maximizer, WindowMax or Vocabulary, which might be similar to Maxima.
