<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>I was wondering which software is more commonly used throughout the mathematics department as I am trying to decide which to purchase. Is one used more than the other? Is one superior to the other?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>Most computers on campus have Maple, Mathematica, and Matlab, so you really don’t need to buy any of them. None of them are really better than the others, just geared towards slightly different audiences.</p>
<p>And you can access them all from your own computer via a remote desktop connection if you want.</p>
