## ginac-1.6.2 – GiNaC is Not a Computer Algebra System (CAS)

## Description

    The name GiNaC is an iterated and recursive abbreviation for GiNaC is
    Not a CAS, where CAS stands for Computer Algebra System. It has been
    developed to become a replacement engine for xloops which in the past
    was powered by the Maple CAS. Its design is revolutionary in a sense
    that contrary to other CAS it does not try to provide extensive
    algebraic capabilities and a simple programming language but instead
    accepts a given language (C++) and extends it by a set of algebraic
    capabilities.
