Math software
As mathematical software refers to programs or program libraries that implement mathematical objects and algorithms and provide an interface to their use and manipulation. The decisive factor here is the focus on the mathematical aspect and the interface made available to the user. For example, a program that solves differential equations would be called mathematical software, but not a program that calculates chemical reactions internally using differential equations.
