Hissab - https://hissab.io https://hissab.io is a Free and opensource alternative to Wolfram
- alok-g 4mo agoHere are some other alternatives (some internally use free Wolfram engine): Reimplementation in Rust: https://github.com/ad-si/Woxi https://github.com/ad-si/Woxi WLJS Notebook: https://wljs.io https://wljs.io VS Code extension: https://github.com/vanbaalon/wolfbook https://github.com/vanbaalon/wolfbook

Note that alternative open source solvers like Fricas fail 10x the integrals in that corpus.
- alok-g 4mo agoThe bottom two are based on Wolfram engine itself, so would fair the same as Mathematica. I do not know about the first one.
- pkaye 4mo agoRubi is just rule based integration. So its like looking up a book of integral formulas and encoding them as rules. It does mean you need a minimum number of other features like partial fraction decomposition, polynomial factoring so it demonstrates some capability. Many of the other Mathematica like CAS end up using the Rubi rules themselves. But indefinite integration is just a small aspect of CAS capabilities. What about integration over a line or surface, definite integration and dealing with singularities, differential equations, solving equations under assumptions, simplifying equations.
- bloaf 4mo agoThe same guy found Sympy was similarly far behind in differential equations (although Maple edges out Mathematica here): https://www.12000.org/my_notes/CAS_ode_tests/index.htm https://www.12000.org/my_notes/CAS_ode_tests/index.htm He does a few other side-by-side comparisons but doesn't include open source engines in them.
- ForceBru 4mo agoAccording to https://github.com/rawbytess/hissab https://github.com/rawbytess/hissab, it's not even close to being an alternative to Wolfram. Hissab is described as "A strict, unit-aware natural-language calculator" and its syntax looks nothing like Wolfram. It reminds me of Wolfram Alpha, though.
- prenx4x 4mo agoIts not trying to achieve a feature parity with wolfram or mimic it. Its just an alternative to do calculations and may meet somewhere in the middle.
