Till now, only one person has confirmed to attend pre-"Sage Days" Python workshop. If there is very little interest for the workshop, there is no point in conducting a workshop. We will hence be forced to annul the workshop. So please confirm your participation in the workshop by 29th July, 2010 afternoon.

Sage Days 25 is the 25th version of Sage Days, and is being organized in Mumbai, India. In order to cater to an Indian audience and scenario, this version has been tweaked slightly. Sage Days 25 has beginner level tutorials, in addition to the usual talks and sprints, to help new users get started with Sage and help promote the use of Sage in India.

Sage is a free, open-source mathematics software system licensed under the GPL. It combines the power of numerous existing open-source packages into a common Python-based interface. It's mission is to create a "viable free open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica and Matlab".

Sage has tools for a broad range of mathematical areas like Linear Algebra, Calculus, Symbolic Math,  Plotting, Rings & Groups, Graph Theory, Number Theory and Cryptography. Essentially, "it can do anything from mapping a 12-dimensional object to calculating rainfall patterns under global warming" - as Science Daily puts it . Eager to get started? Start here. [#1]

Apart from being feature rich, it's usability is one of it's greatest strengths. Sage Notebook, a web-interface for all the math you'll ever want to do, is really the killer feature! As the Sage Marketing page says, "The SAGE GUI surely works on your computer box, because it just runs in Firefox!".  Try it Now! [#2]
