SageMath Alternatives

SageMath is described as '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' and is a very popular app in the education & reference category. There are more than 50 alternatives to SageMath for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Web-based and BSD apps. The best SageMath alternative is R (programming language), which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like SageMath are Jupyter, MATLAB, GNU Octave and Mathematica.
