Symbolic computing is an entirely different paradigm than the numerical array-based computing introduced in the previous chapter. In symbolic computing software, also known as a computer algebra system (CAS), representations of mathematical objects and expressions are manipulated and transformed analytically. Symbolic computing is mainly about using computers to automate analytical computations that can be done by hand with pen and paper. However, by automating the bookkeeping and the manipulations of mathematical expressions ...
