There has been some discussion of it before on other Octave mailing lists but until now you could not use it for very long without crashing Octave. The functions it provides are now crash-free as far as I know. The web site is: http://bsoctave.sourceforge.net/symbolic/symbolic.html Some things you can do with it: arbitrary precision arithmetic arithmetic with exact fractions( i.e. 17/41 5/3 ... ) symbolic differentiation plotting of symbolic expressions and a few other things. A complete list of the functions it provides is available on the site mentioned above. I think I have sorted out most if not all of the Octave/GiNaC interface problems so the implementation of new functions should be pretty straight forward from now on. I hope you find it useful. -- Ben Sapp Los Alamos National Laboratory email: Phone: (505)667-3277 Fax: (505)665-7920 URL: http://www.neutrino.lanl.gov/ -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Octave is freely available under the terms of the GNU GPL.
