Four Languages
The user has a choice among the four most widely used mathematical packages, namely,
MathCad,
Maple,
Mathematica, and
Matlab.
There are several reasons for developing simulations using all the four mathematical packages. First, for continuity, cost and pedagogy, a college may emphasize only one of these packages in their curriculum. Second, there is no additional cost involved if a university already has a site license to one of the four mathematical packages.
