Computer algebra system

ID: computer-algebra-system

A Computer Algebra System (CAS) is a software program designed to perform symbolic mathematics. Unlike traditional numerical computation software that deals primarily with approximations, a CAS manipulates mathematical expressions in symbolic form, allowing for exact solutions and a range of algebraic manipulations. Some of the core functionalities of a CAS include: 1. **Symbolic Manipulation**: It can perform algebraic operations such as simplification, expansion, factoring, and polynomial division.
