Changes since 14.2.7:
12/23/08 - Simplified makefile.
12/26/08 - Fixed rules for simplifying "(x^n)^m" so "misc/john.in" and
others simplify better. Works similar to Maxima now.
12/27/08 - Numeric GCD now properly returns the other parameter, if
either parameter is 0. Renamed "misc/polyroots.c" to
"misc/roots.c" and simplified this example code.
12/30/08 - Added "update" script, which updates the function
prototypes in "cproto.h".
1/1/09 - Optionally factor out the gcd of integer coefficients when
improving readability, for example: 6x+4y becomes 2*((3*x) +
(2*y)). This is now the default.
1/13/09 - Added descriptions of all interesting math scripts in
"tests/README.txt".
1/16/09 - Allow nintegrate and "integrate definite" commands in the
symbolic math library; the bounds are specified in the two
equation spaces following the current equation.
1/18/09 - Made expression and equation entry always consecutively
numbered equation spaces, unless memory is exhausted.
1/19/09 - Made consistent list command output with only one newline
after each equation space.
1/21/09 - Fixed erroneous doubling of parentheses display when solving
and showing steps with "set debug 2".
1/22/09 - Added -b option, to conveniently set bold color mode from
the command line.
1/25/09 - Improved looks of eliminate command by not solving if
equation is already solved.
2/3/09 - Table of contents was added to the Mathomatic User's Manual.
2/5/09 - Added display of any numerical fractions when calculating or
using calculate command; for example, entering "1/2+3/8" now
results in "answer = 0.875 = 7/8".
2/6/09 - Removed erroneous lsqrt() routine obtained from Wikipedia, so
that matho-sumsq works properly now.
2/7/09 - Disable pause command when appropriate (when input not a tty
and for symbolic math library).
2/8/09 - Polished up educational example scripts in "tests" directory.
2/11/09 - Entry of a function now results in "Named functions
currently not implemented" error message.
2/12/09 - Bugfix to matho-primes and added "misc/limits.c".
2/15/09 - The fraction command was fixed to give better results. "set
display2d" flag now no longer affects any results at all, it
only affects 2D output mode.
2/17/09 - Renamed -h (HTML) option to -x, -h is now the help option.
Added -w option to set wide output mode.
3/9/09 - Found the correct formulas for solving the general cubic
equation on Wikipedia, so "tests/cubic.in" always gives
correct answers now.
3/12/09 - Tweak made to simplify result beautifier: factoring priority
only given to real variables now, special constant variables
pi#, e#, and i# have no effect and behave like any constant
now.
3/15/09 - Corrected and improved parse_complex() C function for more
complex number functionality and a bug fix.
3/18/09 - Added "set negate_highest_precedence" option, which allows
the negate operator to be the lower precedence of times and
divide, like it is in Maxima and most other math programs.
3/24/09 - Made "set no autosolve" mode more useful by making it solve
if a solve variable is entered with an equals sign. This
allows easy entry of both single variable expressions (with
no =) and solve variables (with =) while in this mode.
3/27/09 - Selecting equations by entering the equation number was
returning with error if the equation space was empty.
Fixed, you can now select any previously allocated equation
space.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

on some platforms that lacked shared library support in the past. The
list hasn't been maintained at all and the gain is very limited, so just
get rid of it.
0.68 Fri Jun 30 12:17:01 2006
- Added a new version of phrtsd and the phrtsd_orig option.
0.69 Tue Sep 12 08:55:10 2006
- Changed pow to exp at randlib.c[1040] to get around a bug
with gcc under AIX. (Would it also be possible to avoid
this by using -lmsaa rather than -lm?)
0.70 Fri Oct 12 16:30:18 2007
- Minor corrections to POD.
0.71 Tue Sep 16 15:38:06 2008
- Used $ARGV[0] rather than shift in Makefile.PL. Thanks to John
Fong for the correction.
Pkgsrc changes:
o Adapt to .zip distfile format
o Add HOMEPAGE
Upstream changes:
1.23 18 Dec 2008, Perl 21th birthday version
Minimum Perl version required in META.yml
Pkgsrc changes:
o Re-do patch-ab so that the tests and adaptations for the various
NetBSD archs don't sit inside "if ($os eq 'sunos')" (!).
Upstream changes:
2.010801:
build_paricfg() takes a version argument
write_paricfg(): likewise.
Emit paricfg.h which supports GP/PARI v2.3.4.
Remove the section on CPAN mirroring from README.
INSTALL: Explain how to google when server is down.
Skip another subtest in ploth.t.
Fix treatment of -oo in tests. Still fails, but now with
not ok 12 # in='intmellininvshort(2,4,$tab)-$A'
# out='-3.364954880E-97+9.90717831E-100*I', type='Math::Pari'
# pari==='-3.072350108 E-97 + 9.90717831 E-100*I'
# re_out='\-3\.072350108,?\s*E\-97,?\s*\+,?\s*9\.90717831,?\s*E\-100\*I'
Consider `intfuncinit' as requiring "unsane" precision of limits
(bug in GP/PARI???). Now all tests pass???
* Performance improvements for some multidimensional r2c/c2r transforms;
thanks to Eugene Miloslavsky for his benchmark reports.
* Compile with icc on MacOS X, use better icc compiler flags.
* Compilation fixes for systems where snprintf is defined as a macro;
thanks to Marcus Mae for the bug report.
* Fortran documentation now recommends not using dfftw_execute,
because of reports of problems with various Fortran compilers;
it is better to use dfftw_execute_dft etcetera.
* Some documentation clarifications, e.g. of fact that --enable-openmp
and --enable-threads are mutually exclusive (thanks to Long To),
and document slightly odd behavior of plan_guru_r2r in Fortran.
* FAQ was accidentally omitted from 3.2 tarball.
* Remove some extraneous (harmless) files accidentally included in
a subdirectory of the 3.2 tarball.
Packages Collection.
The Perl 5 module Spreadsheet::Read tries to transparently read
*any* spreadsheet and return its content in a universal manner
independent of the parsing module that does the actual spreadsheet
scanning.
Packages Collection.
The Perl 5 module Spreadsheet::XLSX is a (quick and dirty) emulation
of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for Excel 2007 (.xlsx) file format. It
supports styles and many of Excel's quirks, but not all. It populates
the classes from Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for interoperability;
including Workbook, Worksheet, and Cell.
Changes since FriCAS 1.0.4:
- improvement to normalize function, it performs now much
stronger simplifications than before
- better integration: due to improved normalize FriCAS can
now integrate many functions that it previously considered
unintegrable
- improvement to Martin Rubey guessing package, for example
it can now guess differential equation for the generating
function of integer partitions
- better support for using type valued functions
- several bug fixes
Changes since FriCAS 1.0.3:
User Interface:
- Add a new emacs mode: just (require 'fricas), M-x fricas and enjoy.
- Add support for inline display of LaTeXed code.
- Add support for mouse wheel.
- Supress SBCL style warnings due to autoloading.
Merge Ralf's wonderful new Aldor interface.
Allow calling type-valued functions.
Improve coercion of types.
Add coercions to InputForm.
Improve unparse.
Use SExpression as representation of OutputForm.
Miscellaneous improvements, bug fixes and cleanups.
