I've used this site quite a bit http://www.myalgebra.com/ it's the best one I've found so far when a problem requires more number punching than I'd like to do on my phone or a calculator

Nice. I would personally recommend Eigen, which we are now using in a major production project. It has a very nice C++ interface, and makes effective use of expression templates. Here is performance comparison of a few of the libraries listed, as well as some non-free ones, versus Eigen:

Numpy.

Also, you can install a monolithic Python distro from Enthought (EPD). If you are an academic, you can get the full distro for free, which links Numpy and Scipy against Intel MKL for a big performance boost.

I really think that this is a very unfortunate post.

There is a freeware similar to matlab, but I have forgot its name, just remembering it starts with "O".
