Sage is a free open-source mathematics software system licensed under
|
|
the GPL. It combines the power of many existing open-source packages
|
|
into a common Python-based interface.
|
|
Mission: Creating a viable free open source alternative to Magma,
|
|
Maple, Mathematica and Matlab.
|
|
|
|
Sage can be used in several ways: through an interactive command line,
|
|
by writing stand-alone scripts, through the graphical notebook
|
|
interface in a browser, or through the KDE Cantor application (part
|
|
of a full Slackware installation).
|
|
|
|
Building sage requires >12GB of disk space, so you may need to
|
|
redefine $TMP and/or $OUTPUT.
|
|
Note that the build will likely spit out many "zero length file" errors,
|
|
which can safely be ignored.
|
|
|
|
See README.BUILDOPTS for additional (important) information
|
|
about build options and such. Specifically, if you do not move the
|
|
installation directory via a specification of SAGEROOT, you may need
|
|
to do something like
|
|
|
|
source /etc/profile.d/sage.ch
|
|
|
|
so make sure the binary is in your path.
|
|
|
|
This package does not include the doc files. Those can be found at
|
|
doc.sagemath.org.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: If you have ATOM processors, you need to run this command prior
|
|
building: export OPENBLAS_CONFIGURE="TARGET=ATOM"
