Opensource software for scientific computing
by budrz89 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6JTV0)
Hi,
I'm curious about computing software similar to Juptyer. As far as scientific computing is concerned, I've read that Julia and Sagemath are good opensource alternatives. Or maybe an IDE for Python that you may suggest.
I hate to sound like a stickler, but I've recently discovered that there's a Microsoft team contributing to one of the projects that Jupyter needs as a dependency. Perhaps I'm looking at it wrong but, in my mind, it makes it "tainted" software. Granted, I know about the incident that happened years ago with Microsoft buying some shares of Github (which still leaves me with mixed feelings about it). I guess you can say that I'm a Linux diehard.
Maybe I should still give Jupyter a chance -- maybe you guys can offer me a different point of view. But if you can offer alternatives, that would be great.
