This a copy of annoucement that I posted to newsgroups. FriCAS is an advanced computer algebra system. Its capabilities range from calculus (integration and differentiation) to abstract algebra. It can plot functions and has integrated help system.
1.1.1 builds on Linux, many Unix like systems (for example Mac OSX and Solaris 10) and Windows. FriCAS is build on top of Common Lisp; several Lisps can compile and run FriCAS -- currently supported are GCL, SBCL, Clisp, ECL, Closure CL (former OpenMCL) and CMU CL.

In particular integrals containing multiple non-nested roots should now work much faster. Also FriCAS now can compute more integrals of Liouvillian functions. - Several new special functions. - Improvements to efricas. - Looking for default init file FriCAS now first tries to use '.fricas.input' and only if that fails it looks for '.axiom.input'. Bug fixes, in particular: - Numeric atan, asin and acos took wrong branch. - WeierstrassPreparation package did not work. - Saving and restoring history should be now more reliable. - Fixed two bugs in Spad compiler related to conditional compilation. - Fixed a problem with rational reconstruction which affected guessing package. -- Waldek Hebisch [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
