SageMath and UVA HPC
Description SageMath (previously Sage or SAGE, “System for Algebra and Geometry Experimentation”[3]) is a computer algebra system with features covering many aspects of mathematics, including algebra, combinatorics, graph theory, numerical analysis, number theory, calculus and statistics. Ref: wikipedia.org
SageMath is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It builds on top of many existing open-source packages: NumPy, SciPy, matplotlib, Sympy, Maxima, GAP, FLINT, R and many more. Access their combined power through a common, Python-based language or directly via interfaces or wrappers.
Its mission: Creating a viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica and Matlab. Ref: sagemath.
Julia and UVA HPC
Description Julia is a high-level programming language designed for high-performance numerical analysis and computational science. Distinctive aspects of Julia’s design include a type system with parametric polymorphism and types in a fully dynamic programming language and multiple dispatch as its core programming paradigm. It allows concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, and direct calling of C and Fortran libraries without glue code. A just-in-time compiler that is referred to as “just-ahead-of-time” in the Julia community is used. [Ref: Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
