graphical frontend to maxima computer algebra system

## NAME

xmaxima - graphical frontend to maxima computer algebra system

## SYNOPSIS

**xmaxima**

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**xmaxima** is a rather self-explanatory frontend to the maxima computer algebra system.  Menus provide access to online help in html format, as well as to "netmath", a web-based mathematical exploration tool hosted on the Internet.  Plots appear in integrated sub-windows. A maxima primer appears on startup, allowing the user to execute demos of maxima functionality with the mouse.

## OPTIONS

**xmaxima** takes no options.

## SEE ALSO

[**maxima**(1)](/maxima/1.md),\
 Maxima has an extensive set of info pages provided in the Debian package.
