    Genius seems like its a good jack-of-all-trades, couldve used that back in the 2000's when I studied maths + cs.
    Well R, Python and Julia is probably not in the same category, and Octave is what it is.

    But Geogebra, Scilab and Kalgebra is the same kind of jack-of-all-trades as you describe them. Scilab and perhaps Geogebra are more advanced tools with even more functionality and use cases. Scilab also have a relative large community. Kalgebra has little less features and probably closer to Genius, but Kalgebra is a much more mature application and have more polish.

      Thanks for the tips, did not know all of them.

          Well, I just want to quote you on that: If you want to use Octave the way you use Matlab, that could be true. But that's not the way I use it, and it has a lot of nice features Matlab doesn't have (shebangs, fork(), better async file I/O, actually better perf on some vectored operations, auditable/modifiable source, chainable indexes: magic(5)(2,(1), quite a bit more, and a lot of toolboxes on its own: https://octave.sourceforge.io/packages.php ). I encourage you to give it a try for what it's worth. Every tool has its pros and cons, of course
