The different kinds of installations are described in the Wiki Installation.
Features of the Symja language:
- arbitrary precision integers, rational and complex numbers. Polynomial, list functions and Associations
- differentiation, integration, equation solving, linear algebra, number theory, combinatorial, logic and polynomial functions...
- unified connectivity and interoperability through Symja functions for open source libraries like Hipparchus, Tablesaw, JGraphT, LogicNG, JAS Java Algebra System, apfloat...
- a general purpose Term Rewriting System and Pattern Matching engine
- use human readable math expression strings or the internal abstract syntax tree (AST) representation to code in Java. See the Unit test examples
- two Java servlet based notebook interfaces are available in the library. A Symja server for traditional math input and a MMA server for "Mathematica like syntax" input
- two REPLs are available in the library. A Console for standard math input and a MMAConsole for "Mathematica like syntax" input.
- new "script-functions" can be developed as Packages and loaded into the system
- developers can use Symja interactively in the Java jshell or with a call to to the JSON Web API Server
- the Rubi symbolic integration rules are used to implement the Integrate function, they can be systematically applied to determine the antiderivative of a wide variety of mathematical expressions
- compiling numeric functions with the Janino Java™ compiler
-
Appengine web interface symjaweb.appspot.com - available as open source in this Github repository
-
Android App Calculator N+ on Google play store - available as open source in this Github repository provides an IDE mode to calculate arbitrary Symja expressions.
-
Eclipse EASE extension - use Symja as a REPL in Eclipse with this example Github repository which contains some Symja example scripts.
To get an idea of the kinds of expressions Symja handles, see the JUnit tests in this file.

}How to use Maven is described in the Maven wiki page.
First, you'll need a Java Development Kit (JDK) compatible with Java 11 or later.
The Integrated Development Environment (IDE) Eclipse is shipped with a suitable JDK, so you don't have to install a JDK by yourself. Install and open the latest version of the Eclipse development IDE for Java Developers:
a) Fork the Symja repository to use as a starting point.
- Navigate to github.com/axkr/symja_android_library in your browser.
- Click the "Fork" button in the top-right of the page.
- Once your fork is ready, open the new repository's "Settings" by clicking the link in the menu bar on the left.
- Change the repository name to the name of your Library and save your changes.
b) Clone your new repository to your Eclipse workspace.
- Open Eclipse and select the "File -> Import..." menu item.
- Select "Git -> Projects from Git", and click "Next >".
- Select "URI" and click "Next >".
- Enter your repository's clone URL in the "URI" field. The remaining fields in the "Location" and "Connection" groups will get automatically filled in.
- Enter your Github credentials in the "Authentication" group, and click "Next >".
- Select the
masterbranch on the next screen, and click "Next >". - The default settings on the "Local Configuration" screen should work fine, click "Next >".
- Make sure "Import existing projects" is selected, and click "Next >".
- Eclipse should find and select the
symja_android_libraryautomatically, click "Finish".
See this Git version control with Eclipse (EGit) - Tutorial for a general overview.

The Maven modules below all build on matheclipse-core. A module inherits the dependencies of every module it depends on, so the licenses of matheclipse-core apply everywhere. matheclipse-core itself depends on matheclipse-parser and matheclipse-external; the third-party code vendored inside matheclipse-external is therefore listed together with core.
