* Soulver understands arithmetic; Calca knows algebra, calculus, and algorithms
* Soulver requires that all variables be defined; Calca does not
* Soulver does not support user defined functions; to Calca, everything is a function
* Soulver has no programming constructs; Calca is one step away from being a general purpose programming language.
