I dont know how anyone could use a programmers's editor that doesn't include an embedded graphing symbolic calculator that can do linear algebra and vector calculus.
I guess the "copilot" based ones could be said to include it. if you dont mind the slowest interface possible or care if the answers are right. #emacs

@aachrisg@mastodon.gamedev.place I'm going to assume you're talking about calc mode. In my area of systems programming, there wasn't a lot of need for linear algebra or calculus, so I never used it to quite the depth you're suggesting, and in the before times it I certainly don't recall any graphics support. However, it was always an amazing tool when I would use it occasionally.
