The interface that SAGE provides to matplotlib is very Mathematica like. There are also several links to plotting/graphics/data visualization programs at the scipy [http://www.scipy.org/Topical_Software#head-b98ffdb309ccce4e4504a25ea75b5c806e4897b6 wiki].

SAGE plotting

Here are some python plotting engines/libraries:

SAGE's plotting functionality is built on top of matplotlib, which is a very extensive plotting library with a user interface that is very similiar to Matlab's plotting. The interface that SAGE provides to matplotlib is very Mathematica like.

There are also several links to plotting/graphics/data visualization programs at the scipy [http://www.scipy.org/Topical_Software#head-b98ffdb309ccce4e4504a25ea75b5c806e4897b6 wiki].
