There is also "Octave" (www.octave.org). It is a good GNU-based tool
almost identical to Matlab which uses gnuplot for graphing.

All the responses have been off-line, so I thought I'd post a summary of
the results by paraphrasing the general consensus.
MathCAD (http://www.mathcad.com/)
Great starter tool because of ease of use, graphical interface, etc.
Good for presentations, documentation, and derivations but bogs down
with large matrices and arrays.
Matlab (http://www.mathworks.com/
A bit more difficult to use, but it handles large data sets much better.
Also, provides programmatic tools for prompting user, creating loops,
etc. Comes at higher cost.
Mathematica (http://www.wolfram.com/
Folks have used it in the past (e.g., college), but nobody seems to use
it anymore (no particular reason). Much higher cost.
SciLab (http://www.scilab.org/)
Freebie tool that works similarly to Matlab.
Thanks y'all for the input,
Pat
