Math on Linux ?
Hey, I wanted to practice math from the education I got but now it would make the most sense and use the keyboard to do so I think.
Are there ways to write out math on a pc of which one is the status quo or is there only one way that works to write an equasion in a way a programm can use it?
Is there a programm for Linux that guides by exercises, writing operations in the right form to make them usable in a math programm and teaches math for people who want to get into it ?

I'm not into maths, but would R be something worth trying?

Re: Math on Linux ?
I'm not that excited to do math but just want to know how long it actually takes to finish my old final tests by learning from the internet.
To do the old excercises on pc is kinda hard alot of new buttons and that kinda thing.
Is there a good place to learn that ? I bought a online teacher once it was a waste of money and a scam.

Re: Math on Linux ?
Right now I'm reading through this website for Algebra, it's well structured and starts with the basics, and makes it easy to get back into that.

I used maxima during my engineering studies, For simpler cases bc is my main tool.

Maybe rephrase the header. Khan academy has also math courses, https://www.khanacademy.org, you can download also to your phone.
Re: Math on Linux ?
Different software has different ways of writing equations, the ones I know of for linux are R, sage, maxima and scilab.
Libreoffice has a simple tool to write equations, though nowhere near as complete as TeX, bear in mind these two are just for writing, not solving or calculating.

Re: Math on Linux ?
Okay I will pick out a software that feels good to handle and get used to it. I'd like to save the exercises after solving them, use the software to help me when I'm stuck by experimenting with it and maybe visualise some of thair geometry now and then for understanding. It would be nice if the software was fun and somewhat good looking with some effects and what not.

Re: Math on Linux ?
R can do all that, but it's command line, so there are no looks as such
But it can produce good looking PDFs or websites through R Markdown.
But it might be a steep learning curve for at least a while.

Re: Math on Linux ?
Maybe spreadsheet would have the lowest learning curve. gnumeric and libreoffice-calc are in the repos. Both have quite decent set of math functions.
Easy to do graphs too.

R is probably all that You want - it's a complete math/coding environment.
The best IDE for R on Linux is RKward.
R has no limits in terms of capabilities, but it is limited in terms of performance - the ultimate performance requires ultimate experience in coding, as usual.

Re: Math on Linux ?
Thanks for the link, when I needed the online teacher I subscribed in 11th grade and had to pay 300€ for a bad website. I trust this website is better but for what I need it will be best to learn how the programm can solve and visualize simple equations.

Re: Math on Linux ?
Rstudio and Maxima are the packages that are installed for now to get started. Maybe people make their tutorials avalable in rstudio, there are some from the list that is on the tutorials front page maybe there are even tutorials created to use R as a education software for simple math ...

Re: Math on Linux ?
Can many people who programm use the computer language "S" mentioned in the help section ?
