'''Algebrator''' is a [[Computer algebra system]] (CAS), which was developed in the late 90s by Neven Jurkovic of Softmath, San Antonio, Texas. This is the only CAS specifically geared towards algebra education. Beside the computation results, it shows step by step solution process and context sensitive explanations.
