I don't think you'll get an answer to such a broad and vague question. Honestly it sounds like the topic of a research paper to me. However, if you have specific questions, ask away.
 
Fred is right - answers to questions like that will at best get you a Wik link, which you could find and read yourself.
 

Thread 'What mathematics software should engineering students use?'

What mathematics software should engineering students use? Is it correct that much of the engineering industry relies on MATLAB, making it the tool many graduates will encounter in professional settings? How does SageMath compare? It is a free package that supports both numerical and symbolic computation and can be installed on various platforms. Could it become more widely used because it is freely available? I am an academic who has taught engineering mathematics, and taught the...
