Maxima

(Maxima is free software, but it is not a GNU package. However, the GNU web site has long had this page about it, so it will remain for reference.)

Maxima is a fairly complete computer algebra system written in lisp with an emphasis on symbolic computation. It is based on DOE-MACSYMA and licensed under the GPL. Its abilities include symbolic integration, 3D plotting, and an ODE solver.

The complete Maxima distribution is available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/maxima.
