Xcas is a user interface to Giac, which is an open source[2] computer algebra system (CAS) for Windows, macOS and Linux among many other platforms. Xcas is written in C++.[3] Giac can be used directly inside software written in C++.
Xcas has compatibility modes with many popular algebra systems like WolframAlpha,[4] Mathematica,[5] Maple,[6] or MuPAD. Users can use Giac/Xcas to develop formal algorithms or use it in other software. Giac is used in SageMath[4] for calculus operations. Among other things, Xcas can solve differential equations (Figure 3) and draw graphs. There is a forum for questions about Xcas.[7]
CmathOOoCAS, an OpenOffice.org plugin which allows formal calculation in Calc spreadsheet and Writer word processing, uses Giac to perform calculations.[8]
