I don't have money for MATLAB, is Sage any good anons?

I use Sage regularly because it has prebuilt packages very convenient to the area I work in.
Overall Sage is nice. Very easy to write in (Python is wonderful for math) and it has packages for most common things, and some unusual packages too. Downside is that the documentation is DOGSHIT. Lots of methods with literally no explanation anywhere online of how they're used, incompatibilities between methods (sometimes even basic things like the type of certain objects can't stay consistent), most manpages are very incomplete even in terms of what functions exist (plenty of times I've written something only to realize there was already a function for it that's just not fucking listed anywhere), other shit like this.

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 24 14:30:25 2018 No.10092802 Use numpy.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 25 01:21:10 2018 No.10094167 >>10092802 this. matlab falls apart once you stop only wanting to do math operations. It makes general programming a pain in the ass (if you want to use your math in an interesting way and connect to something else)

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 25 01:55:16 2018 No.10094204 >>10092752 My thoughts exactly. I really like Sage but there is such little documentation and help for it online.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 25 02:02:25 2018 No.10094208 Sage is ALMOST a drop in replacement for core MATLAB (a very few minor syntax diffs iirc) but the real reason people use MATLAB is the toolboxes, which Sage doesn't have
