[TriZPUG] Sage notebook and new IPython

[Jim Allman]

In this week's after-meeting, we talked about interactive stats and math tools in Python.

I mentioned the SAGE project, which is an open-source alterative to Magma / Maple / Mathematica / Matlab:

Sage is a funky, through-the-web console that uses Python to drive lots of math software. Note that there's a public server so you can easily take it for a spin:

I didn't realize this, but IPython also has a "notebook" UI with inline graphing. In fact, they just released a new version (0.13) with big improvements in this area:
