'''Facilities'''
The Math Department has Windows, Macintosh, and Linux systems. The Windows systems are administered by the College or Arts & Sciences. They have the standard Cornell software packages, and you can log in using your Cornell netid and password.
The Macintosh and Linux systems are administered by the Math Department. You can log in to them using your Math Department user account.
'''Systems and Software'''▼
The Linux systems are running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. They have the standard software packages for software development, desktop applications as well as software for LaTEX and the composition of web content. If there is something that you need which is not on the systems, please let us know, we'd be happy to include it.
We also have Linux machines that are dedicated computation machines. You can see the list of machines at [[MachineList]]. You can connect to the machines remotely by following the instructions here: [[Connecting]].

The Math Department has many mathematics applications available on the department Linux machines. These include:
* Matlab (Type <b><tt>matlab &</tt></b> in a terminal window)
* Wolfram Mathematica (Type <tt>mathematica &</tt> in a terminal window)
* Maple (Type <tt>maple</tt> in a terminal window for the text-based system, type <tt> xmaple & </tt> for the graphical system.)
