Why that's a terrific idea =) The package is gap, which was orphaned a while ago and I ITA. The package description is: gap is a system for computational discrete algebra with particular emphasis on computational group theory, but which has already proved useful also in other areas. In the example text, gap is used to analyse Rubik's Cube using group theory. A kernel, which makes use of readline, implements a pascal-like language. Many libraries and data bases are included. A thorough html manual is included. At least, that's the old description, I'm going to change it a bit, and split out the manuals in other packages. (gap-doc-dvi, gap-doc-pdf, gap-doc-html), and I've packaged a newer upstream version than the current gap package, which is frankly oooold. So, there you have it. The reason I picked this package is that I think it's an extremely cool program, and I'm a math nerd, my minor is in maths, focusing in algebra, so...
