SageMath (previously Sage or SAGE, "System for Algebra and Geometry Experimentation") is mathematical software with features covering many aspects of mathematics, including algebra, combinatorics, numerical mathematics, number theory, and calculus.
The first version of SageMath was released on 24 February 2005 as free and open source software under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2, with the initial goals of creating an "open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica, and MATLAB". The originator and leader of the SageMath project, William Stein, is a mathematician at the University of Washington.
SageMath "uses a Python-like syntax," supporting procedural, functional and object-oriented constructs.
Features of SageMath include:
William Stein realized when designing Sage that there were many open-source mathematics software packages already written in different languages, namely C, C++, Common Lisp, Fortran and Python.
