How To Install axiom-graphics on Kali Linux
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install axiom-graphics on Kali Linux.
What is axiom-graphics
axiom-graphics is:
Axiom is useful for research and development of mathematical algorithms. It defines a strongly typed, mathematically correct type hierarchy. It has a programming language and a built-in compiler.
Axiom has been in development since 1973 and was sold as a commercial product. It has been released as free software.
Efforts are underway to extend this software to (a) develop a better user interface (b) make it useful as a teaching tool (c) develop an algebra server protocol (d) integrate additional mathematics (e) rebuild the algebra in a literate programming style (f) integrate logic programming (g) develop an Axiom Journal with refereed submissions.
This package contains the binaries for the graphics subsystem. The programs in this package allow axiom to draw plots to separate windows in X as well as to output files in postscript format.
