Axiom is a general purpose Computer Algebra system. It is useful for doing mathematics by computer and for research and development of mathematical algorithms. It defines a strongly typed, mathematically correct type hierarchy. It has a programming language and a built-in compiler.

Axiom has been in development since 1973 and was sold as a commercial product. It has been released as free software.

Efforts are underway to extend this software to (a) develop a better user interface (b) make it useful as a teaching tool (c) develop an algebra server protocol (d) integrate additional mathematics (e) rebuild the algebra in a literate programming style (f) integrate logic programming (g) develop an Axiom Journal with refereed submissions.

Axiom is sponsored by CAISS, the Center for Algorithms and Interactive Scientific Software, at The City College of New York.

Assistance with regression tests

Please note that dl.sv.gnu.org will redirect randomly to one of many GNU
download mirrors.  They should all be updated by now. [...]

Axiom Website Restored
     posted by camm, Sat 12 Apr 2025 08:39:44 PM UTC

Greetings!  This is to announce that the final version of the axiom website hosted by Tim at axiom-developer.org has been restored here at Savannah.  There may be a few issues, so please report them to me if found.  The tree should be identical except for the downloads and patches directories, which have been moved to Savannah's download area due to their size.  The html references have been updated to point to the new location accordingly and should work now.
