-
- JACAL is a symbolic mathematics system for the simplification and
- manipulation of equations and single and multiple valued algebraic
- expressions constructed of numbers, variables, radicals, and algebraic
- functions, differential, and holonomic functions. In addition,
- vectors and matrices of the above objects are included.
-
- JACAL is written in Scheme. A version of Scheme (IEEE P1178 and R4RS
- compliant) written in C is available with JACAL. SCM runs on Amiga,
- Atari-ST, MacOS, MS-DOS, OS/2, NOS/VE, VMS, Unix and similar systems.
-
