Good day,
There is a package for Macsyma that seem very interesting to me in that
it "simplifies" expressions in a way that seem much more natural to me.
(I think I've complained enough in the past about some of the
shortcomings of Maxima.)
http://math.nist.gov/~BMiller/computer-algebra/
Could this be ever used with Maxima?
BTW some of you might be interested in noting that I went from "what the
h*ll is this piece of cr*p" to using Maxima exclusively for my Computer
Algebra needs (which are modest for the time being, but still).
Thanks!
