Pakket: fricas-doc (1.3.8-6)

General purpose computer algebra system: documentation

Fricas is useful for research and development of mathematical algorithms. It defines a strongly typed, mathematically correct type hierarchy. It has a programming language and a built-in compiler.

Fricas has been in development since 1973 and was sold as a commercial product. It has been released as free software.

Efforts are underway to extend this software to (a) develop a better user interface (b) make it useful as a teaching tool (c) develop an algebra server protocol (d) integrate additional mathematics (e) rebuild the algebra in a literate programming style (f) integrate logic programming (g) develop an Fricas Journal with refereed submissions.

This package contains all documentation, including the Fricas book in dvi format with all postscript images.
