The paper is devoted to distance exams, as in that the focus is on mathematical disciplines. Some advantages are standing out, as well as significant disadvantages have been discussed. Current modern tools are considered, which are applied both in the preparation of students and in distance exams.
This paper is devoted to some up-to-date computational tools, which are on-line available and appropriate to remote learning as well as to scientific research implementation relevant to mathematics and their applications.
The following aspects are concerned and discussed: some of the opportunities and benefits afforded by the software tools which are taken into consideration; necessary requirements which have to be met in order to use these tools; some disadvantages and drawbacks which may arise.
Comparison of fees and prices for different mathematical software tools is done.
For purpose of illustration realistic examples are also given.
