Is Maple or Mathematica preffered over the other for Cryptography/Number Theory? What are the advantages for each in terms of this area of mathematics?
Also could someone compare and contrast between Maple and Mathematica in terms of the following branches of mathematics (briefly):
- Discrete (Combinatorics, Graph Theory, ...)
- Analysis (Real, Complex, ...)
- Algebra (Linear, Abstract, ...)
- Applied (differetial equations, modeling, ...)
- Logic
