GiNaC Alternatives

GiNaC is described as 'C++ library. It is designed to allow the creation of integrated systems that embed symbolic manipulations together with more established areas of computer science (like computation- intense numeric applications, graphical interfaces, etc.) under one roof' and is an app. There are more than 10 alternatives to GiNaC for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Web-based and Android apps. The best GiNaC alternative is GNU Octave, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like GiNaC are SageMath, Mathematica, Maxima and wxMaxima.
