longDescription = ''
PARI/GP is a widely used computer algebra system designed for fast
computations in number theory (factorizations, algebraic number theory,
elliptic curves...), but also contains a large number of other useful
functions to compute with mathematical entities such as matrices,
polynomials, power series, algebraic numbers etc., and a lot of
transcendental functions. PARI is also available as a C library to allow
for faster computations.
Originally developed by Henri Cohen and his co-workers (Université
Bordeaux I, France), PARI is now under the GPL and maintained by Karim
Belabas with the help of many volunteer contributors.
- PARI is a C library, allowing fast computations.
- gp is an easy-to-use interactive shell giving access to the
PARI functions.
- GP is the name of gp's scripting language.
- gp2c, the GP-to-C compiler, combines the best of both worlds
by compiling GP scripts to the C language and transparently loading
the resulting functions into gp. (gp2c-compiled scripts will typically
run 3 or 4 times faster.) gp2c currently only understands a subset
of the GP language.
