If we had Category:Domain-specific programming languages this would be a subcat. It's a list of languages that are not intended for general use (though many can be used that way) but for solving math problems.
The list so far includes calculators (bc, GP, and the TI-BASICs), proof assistants (Coq), computer algebra systems (Maple, Mathematica, Maxima), and so forth.
