Fort Pond Research is pleased to announce ALJABR, a computer algebra program derived from Project MAC's Symbolic Manipulation System originally developed by the Mathlab Group at M.I.T.'s Laboratory for Computer Science. ALJABR is used for performing symbolic as well as numerical mathematical manipulations. With ALJABR the user can differentiate, integrate, take limits, solve systems of linear or polynomial equations, factor polynomials, expand functions in Laurent or Taylor series, solve differential equations (using direct or transform methods), compute Poisson series, plot curves, and manipulate matrices and tensors. ALJABR has a high level language permitting the user to extend ALJABR with his own programs for transforming symbolic expressions. ALJABR 1.0 is available to Macintosh users for $199. The Macintosh version runs in a 3.5 MB MultiFinder partition and requires 6 MB of hard disk storage. The language reference manual will be available in the first quarter 1991 (January - March) for $50. Fort Pond Research's ALJABR is interface equivalent to the M.I.T. computer algebra program.. For those who have it, the RMACSYMA Reference ManualS ((c) 1983, Massachusetts Institute of Technology) would be adequate. Workstation versions can also be arranged dependent upon market demands.
