I've installed Euler on Athena for Sun and Linux. Euler is like a
calculator on steroids- it's an interpreted, interactive programming
language for real and complex numeric analysis. It can deal with
matrices in ways similar to Matlab and Octave and comes with 2d and 3d 
plotting capabilities. Euler is supplied with extensive libraries of 
numeric, statistical and graphics routines written in its internal 
language. It supports notebooks (similar to, but less sophisticated
than Mathematica notebooks).

To run it:

	add euler
	euler

The online help (Help -> Documentation from within the GUI) explains how to
use it, but you can really learn almost everything about it by running the
extensive demo suite (Misc -> Demo).
