An advanced scientific mathematics app that's sophisticated allowing simulation and supports algebra.

Scilab is a free and open source numerical computation app and calculator developed by Scilab Enterprises for Windows, it's powerful and advanced.

The download has been tested by an editor here on a PC and a list of features has been compiled; see below. We've also created some screenshots of Scilab to illustrate the user interface and show the overall usage and features of this numerical computation program.

An advanced scientific mathematics app that's sophisticated

Scilab was designed to be a scientific software package for numerical computations providing a powerful open computing environment for engineering and scientific applications.

Scilab includes hundreds of mathematical functions with the possibility to add interactively programs from various languages (C, C++, Fortran). It has sophisticated data structures (including lists, polynomials, rational functions, linear systems...), an interpreter and a high level programming language.
