Answer 1

the human brain.. ?

Answer 2

Personally, I am a big fan of Mathematica, a program from Wolfram Research. However, so as not to be biased, I'll tell you about several.
In physics, Mathematica is very popular. It is both a computer algebra solver and a programming language, so if a function you need doesn't exist, you can create one yourself. It is ideal for quick calculations (like integrals) and quick plots, and there are few programs out there which do better 3-D plots than Mathematica. I've done derivations with good annotations in Mathematica and posted them online, and I attracted the attention of a physics professor in Poland who wanted to use my work. So, clearly, you can do some pretty cool stuff with this program.
On the downside, the program can sometimes get too caught up in the details (often you need to specify that your variables are real, or else you get crazy answers) and the 2-D plots, while they're just fine on the screen, can be made to look better with other programs.
Matlab seems to be more popular in engineering than science, and if that's the field you're going in to, then perhaps you should look at that program.
Maple is another computer algebra solver, and the only department I've seen which uses it is a math department, although I'm sure it's used other places too.
MathCAD I've heard of, but that's about it.
Another thing to keep in mind is price. These are all expensive programs. If you're at a university, there may be a special student price for one or all of them. Also, if you're near a university academic computer lab that you can use, expect to see at least one of these programs loaded on all the computers.
From experience I can tell you that once you become familiar with one of these programs, that program will always seem to be "the best." There is a fair amount of brand loyalty among them, so I can't claim to be entirely impartial.
Good luck!

Mathematica is pretty good; you can input equations as you would normally write them on paper. It also has good plotting capability.

MathCAD is another good option. It takes a little work to understand the nomenclature, but the tutorial is a good place to start.

Maple is a third option, but I'm not that familiar with Maple. MatLAB is yet another option, but is really better for numerical simulations.

And if all else fails, you can always use good 'ol Excel.

Answer 4

I usually use Matlab for university. it's a very powerful tool, there are also functions to modify images, or sounds, and someone use this for convert wav to mp3, but it is still a math software.....you can work with matrix, vectorial calc, interpolations of sperimental data, simbolic integers and differentials, function with more variables like z = f (x,y), it can also use 'if' 'for' 'while'....really powerful.

Answer 5

Mathematica is a software app made by (Wolfram) http://www.wolfram.com/

It has many uses in different scientific computing.

Wolfram has a very cool (and free!) website that can do symbolic integration on very complex equations.
