Abstract
This document provides the user with a description of the algebraic programming system
REDUCE. The capabilities of this system include:
-
1.
- expansion and ordering of polynomials and rational functions,
-
2.
- substitutions and pattern matching in a wide variety of forms,
-
3.
- automatic and user controlled simplification of expressions,
-
4.
- calculations with symbolic matrices,
-
5.
- arbitrary precision integer and real arithmetic,
-
6.
- facilities for defining new functions and extending program syntax,
-
7.
- analytic differentiation and integration,
-
8.
- factorization of polynomials,
-
9.
- facilities for the solution of a variety of algebraic equations,
-
10.
- facilities for the output of expressions in a variety of formats,
-
11.
- facilities for generating numerical programs from symbolic input,
-
12.
- expansion of expressions into power series,
-
13.
- graphical display of functions and data,
-
14.
- Dirac matrix calculations of interest to high energy physicists.
