Description
Macaulay is a computer algebra system for mathematical computations in algebraic
geometry and commutative algebra. At its core is a carefully tuned implementation
of Grobner basis methods for computing syzygies and manipulating systems of polynomial equations.
Macaulay's user base consists largely of academic researchers and graduate
students. It consists of roughly 30,000 lines of C code, documentation, and
contributed scripts in Macaulay's command language (which has been dubbed
affectionately by some users as "algebraic machine language").

Wait!!
It's 2003. That 70's haircut really has to go. While you're at it, are you sure you want this program?
It warms our hearts every time we hear of a diehard Macaulay enthusiast,
but even Dave has switched to
Macaulay 2.
Mike Stillman and Dan Grayson have undertaken a complete rewrite of Macaulay.
