I always have Octave open for calculations and math. For symbolic math
look at python-sympy, axiom, cantor, euler, form, freemat (said to be mostly
matlab compatible), mathomatic, maxima, sagemath, wxmaxima, or just do
"apt-cache search math" and look down the list.

People live happier when their "bash" is actually a zsh:
~ $ echo $((0.6 + 1.3))
1.8999
~ $ zmodload zsh/mathfunc
~ $ echo $[exp(1)+exp(-1)]
3.0861612696304874
