- I want to write a computer algebra/theorem proving system, basically
- as a learning exercise and a testbed for any new ideas I might have.
- I guess, though, that this has been done a million times in the past,
- so I want to find out about important existing systems.
-
- I've done a literature search which has revealed singularly little, so
- the next approach is to ask the people on the ground...I don't want to
- buy any of the commercial packages - I'm interested in finding out about
- the underlying principles.
-
- Can anyone refer me to articles, papers, or even software, from which
- I can infer the current wisdom? Also, are there any meetings or
- conferences which discuss this sort of thing?
-
- Thanks
- Anthony Heading
