Dear Friends,

Do some one know whether there is some open source Mathematics software available like Mathematica/Maple or Matlab.

Octave and Maxima are two of the best.

Thanks my friends for your help.
I will try these softwares now! I am not sure if it is possible to understand the source code for learning algorithms implemented.

I'm going to echo what he said, at least for the applications I use it for.

I used to add MuPAD Light, but the corporate suits took over and yanked the free version.
