|
GPLv3. French documentation by Renee De Graeve is for non-commercial use
|
|
only. The package consists of:
|
|
|
|
- a C++ library (libgiac). It is build on C and C++ libraries:
|
|
PARI, NTL (arithmetic), CoCoA (Groebner basis), GSL (numerics),
|
|
GMP (big integers), MPFR (bigfloats) and provides algorithms for
|
|
basic polynomial operations (product, GCD) and symbolic
|
|
computations (simplifications, limits/series, symbolic
|
|
integration, summation, ...). The library can be configured to
|
|
accept Maple or TI syntax to ease the transition for users of
|
|
these systems.
|
|
- a command line interpreter (icas or giac). It can be called from texmacs.
|
|
- a FLTK-based GUI (xcas). It is a GUI for symbolic computation
|
|
with several modules added: 2-d and 3-d graphics, dynamic 2-d and
|
|
3-d geometry (exact or numeric), spreadsheet, programming
|
|
environment.
