Derive was implemented in muLISP, also by Soft Warehouse. The first release was in 1988. It was discontinued on June 29, 2007 in favor of TI-Nspire. The last and final version is Derive 6.1 for MS-Windows.\r\n\t<\/p>\r\n\t<p>\r\n\t\tSince Derive required comparably little memory, it was suitable for use on older and smaller machines. It was available only for Windows and DOS platforms and was used also in TI pocket calculators.\r\n\t<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<!-- Source: Wikipedia -->\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/math.hawaii.edu\/dfw\/\">Installation using the site license<\/a>\r\n\t<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<dl>\r\n\t<dt>\r\n\t\tDerive Basics\r\n\t<\/dt>\r\n\t<dd>\r\n\t\tThe Derive 6 software is installed on the lab PCs.
