Here's a thread FYI. http://groups.google.com/group/mathfuture/browse_thread/thread/e1afd5907813e... <http://groups.google.com/group/mathfuture/browse_thread/thread/e1afd5907813e789?hl=en>It's being used with Geogebra, as a kind of plug-in, looks like. No I haven't tested it myself (yet). Kirby On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 1:12 PM, Mark Engelberg <mark.engelberg@gmail.com>wrote:

Thanks for the link to MathPiper. I hadn't seen that yet.

I'm curious how this compare to Sage and/or Geogebra. Anyone tried it out yet? I see it's in beta; is it fairly stable?

As I recall, mathpiper branched off from SAGE 2 or 3 years ago.  Both projects are based on python, no?

From the advanced FAQ:

What Is MathPiper? MathPiper is an interpreted Computer Algebra System which has the following capabilities: Pattern matching. Term rewriting. Output in text, 2D text, LaTeX, and OpenMath output. Lisp-like macros. MathPiper has an m-expression syntax and it is implemented on a Java-based Lisp interpreter.  It was forked from JYacas in 2008 and has undergone continuous development since that time.
