Some symbolic computing links to the NAG numeric library

Published: 01 July 1991 Publication History

Abstract

This article is a semi-popular account intended to help readers compare the three products, SENAC, InterCall and IRENA. Each of the three is in the genre specified in the title of this paper. This article is not a review, as the authors are too closely associated with individual products. For technical detail, see the references below, which, however, treat individual products and generally provide no comparisons.
