# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| mathomatic: Mathomatic (a small, portable Computer Algebra System) mathomatic: mathomatic: This is a console mode application that does symbolic math and mathomatic: quick calculations in a standard and generalized way. mathomatic: Mathomatic is designed to be as general an easy to use as general. mathomatic: It implements most of the rules of algebra for addition, subtraction, mathomatic: multiplication, division, modulo division, and all forms of mathomatic: exponentiation.
