1 Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions,
2 including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms,
3 ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, polynomials, and
4 sets, lists, vectors, matrices, and tensors. Maxima yields high precision
5 numeric results by using exact fractions, arbitrary precision integers, and
6 variable precision floating point numbers. Maxima can plot functions and data in
7 two and three dimensions.
