I just want to try linux mint on that laptop. If I didn’t like linux mint after I installed it, can I go back to windows 7? Does anyone have the ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Like for example, you could use Math.pow() for exponential calculations but, is there something of the sort for derivatives and more or do Math programs implement this all on their own?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
