Macaulay2
Macaulay2 is a system for computing in commutative algebra, algebraic geometry
and related fields. The system was originally written by Dan Grayson and Mike
Stillman. David Eisenbud joined the project a number of years ago, and many
users are writing packages for the system, and some are contributing source
code. See our web page
http://macaulay2.com/
for more details and for downloading binary releases.
The source code is available at
