  Computer algebra system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The study of algorithms useful for computer algebra systems is known as computer algebra.
The run-time of numerical programs implemented in computer algebra systems is normally longer than that of equivalent programs implemented in systems such as MATLAB, GNU Octave, or directly in C, since they are programmed for full symbolic generality and thus cannot use machine numerical operations directly for most of their functions.
Computer algebra systems began to appear in the early 1970s, and evolved out of research into artificial intelligence, though the fields are now regarded as largely separate.

Magma exists between 650 and 1200 °C. Magma is under high pressure and sometimes emerges through volcanic vents in the form of flowing lava (melt as it exists above the Earth's surface) and pyroclastic ejecta.
Magma rises primarily because a melt is less dense than its source rock, it is propelled upward through the lithosphere by the buoyancy that its lower density creates (the way less dense wood is pushed up and floats in denser water).
Magma is composed mainly of silica; alkalis (sodium, potassium, and calcium); and magnesium and iron.

Magma is under high pressure and sometimes emerges through volcanic vents in the form of flowing lava and pyroclastic ejecta.
Magma collects in many separate magma chambers within the Earth's crust, and will have slightly different compositions in different places.

The run-time of numerical programs implemented in computer algebra systems is normally longer than that of equivalent programs implemented in systems such as MATLAB, GNU Octave or directly in C, because the computer algebra languages are often interpreted and the bignum system may cause overhead.
Computer algebra systems began to appear in the early 1970s, and evolved out of research into artificial intelligence (the fields are now regarded as largely separate).
The first popular systems were Reduce, Derive and Macsyma which are still commercially available; a copyleft version of Macsyma called GNU Maxima is actively being maintained.

 Fermat, Computer Algebra System II
By "exact symbolic" we mean computation with polynomials whose coefficients are integers (of any size), rational numbers, or finite fields, as opposed to coefficients that are "floats" of a certain precision.
Such computation is part of most computer algebra systems ("CA systems").
In this paper we compare these small systems to each other and to two of the large systems (Maple and Magma) on a set of problems involving exact symbolic computation with polynomials and matrices.

 COHOMOLOGY OF 2-GROUPS
The program computes some of the products as it goes and hence the only generators for which the chain maps are calculated are those which are not polynomials in the other generators.
In this section is listed the representative, the images of the generators for the cohomolgy of G as elements in the polynomial ring which is the cohomology of the elementary abelian subgroup, and a list of the generators of the kernel of the restriction map.
The paramflag is true if the computed system of parameters restricts to every elementary abelian subgroup as a system of parameters, or at least the cohomology ring of the elementary abelian subgroup is a finitely generated module over the subring generated by the restrictions of the elements in the system of parameters.

 COHOMOLOGY OF 2-GROUPS
The goal is to compute as many examples as possible of mod-p cohomology rings of finite p-groups.
Hence if the paramflag is true then we are guaranteed that the computed system of parameters is really a system of parameters for the cohomology ring.
The current algorithm (of my own writing) for choosing a system of parameters is simply a search in which the machine chooses polynomials, starting with the generators and proceeding up by degrees, and then testing to see if the Krull dimension of the ring drops when the polynomial is factored out.
