From ApCoCoAWiki

This is the official page for the computer algebra system ApCoCoA.

ApCoCoA stands for Applied Computations in Computer Algebra. It is based on the computer algebra system CoCoA, which can be found at http://cocoa.dima.unige.it/. Some information can also be found in the CoCoA section of this wiki. There is absolutely NO link to the Apple cocoa interface!

ApCoCoA is developed by the ApCoCoA Team, which is lead by Martin Kreuzer, and is always looking for new contributors.

ApCoCoA

The software ApCoCoA is a client/server application. The functionality of the server is implemented in ApCoCoALib, a GPL'ed C++ library. The client consists of an interpreter/a parser and an open source graphical user interface. All the functionality of CoCoA is provided by this client and in addition there are some new commands available. These additional commands are described in the ApCoCoA Manual.

ApCoCoA 1.2 Released! (July 15, 2009)

For a list of features, see [1]. It is recommended to use ApCoCoA-1.2 using the beta version of the new eclipse-GUI. For installation please go to the eclipse-GUI installation guide. As soon as possible there will be a standalone version of the eclipse version. Also ApCoCoA-1.2 is still available with the old, well known Qt-GUI. To download these executables, go to ApCoCoA Downloads
