Sage Math

[jobonso]

I'm a noob at this stuff, but would anyone know if it is possible to run a python based program like sage math inside pythonista 3? Thanks

It doesn't look like it would be possible to use Sage Math in Pythonista. According to the homepage, it is based on various libraries and software that Pythonista doesn't have. For example, scipy is not available in Pythonista (but not due to lack of demand, it's an often requested addition, but there are technical issues that make it hard to add to Pythonista). Sage Math also seems to use Maxima and R, which are entirely separate tools that have nothing to do with Python. Not to mention that any GUI code would need to be rewritten completely to work on Pythonista.

Pythonista does however include several mathematics-related libraries, such as numpy, sympy and matplotlib, which work almost exactly like they do on a normal Python installation.

There is a Sage Math app in Apple's App Store but I have not used it. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sage-math/id496492945

Also listen to https://talkpython.fm/episodes/show/59/sagemath-open-source-is-ready-to-compete-in-the-classroom to understand Sage Math from a Python perspective.
