[sage-devel] What SAGE can do

2007-04-16 Thread William Stein
Hi, I think it would be extremely valuable if there were a web page that summarized "what SAGE can do", divided into functional categories (Arthur Gaer, the Harvard math sysadmin suggested this). If you have time, could you visit http://www.sagemath.org:9001/cando and add some entries that

I've used R quite extensively as well as the rpy interface. R is by far the best open-source statistics package out there, with an excellent supporting community and predictable six-month release cycles. If that could be plugged into SAGE, it would be an enormous boon to anyone wanting to do sta
