pyMaxima is using pygeo for the 3D-display of the geometry objects as lines, planes or spheres.
Note: The installation of PyGeo is limited up to Python 2.7
You have to install the following package, if you are using Python 2.5 to 2.7:
PyGeo.zip
Many Thanks to the blogger for the update of PyGeo! -

pyMaxima supports the following mathematical tools:
calculus: curve tracing, simple ordinary differential equations, disk-/shell-method for volumes by cross-sections
probability theory: significance test, confidence intervall, binomial and normal distribution, conditional probability
coordinate geometry: intersection problems, 3D-display
matrix operations: transpose or inverse of a matrix, determinant, characteristic polynom, eigenvalue -
pyMaxima is tested under Linux and Windows
