 I have uploaded a binary "mathmod_for_cola" that should run
on your system.  It needs Qt5 which most distros have installed.
 The binary is here:
 https://ufile.io/pl37hbgi
 Just down to any directory, preferably one that is in your PATH,
and execute.
 Example:
 Download to /home
 Execute as /home/mathmod_for_cola &
 If it fails then do:
 ldd /home/mathmod_for_cola
 and look for any "not found" messages which indicates a missing
dependency.
  

When running it, it says, "permission denied" :) Hehe :) Using sudo at the beginning says "[the binary] not found" despite the directory being on the path. So I ran: ldd [the binary] , and got:
./mathmod: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./mathmod)
./mathmod: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./mathmod)
./mathmod: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.32' not found (required by ./mathmod)
./mathmod: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.15' not found (required by ./mathmod)
I have installed c and c++ two times before, but this software looks like needs a particular version of them to work!
Flud, admit it :) When you encounter Winblows, you need to immediately hit the floor like Mullahs in Iran: Forehead on the ground, ass up in the air. Then say your respects to Winblows. After that for good measure you may want to do a somersault too :-))
Linux _sucks_ the way it is presented to people. It could very easily be without these issues only if those who work on Linux itself wanted to. But they don't do that because they're bought by Microsoft.
Linux is in the wrong hands in this country.
