Experiences with the muMath symbolic math program

Experiences with the muMath symbolic math program About 20 Years ago, I had the opportunity to see a real computer, an IBM 709. When I asked whether it could do Calculus, I was told that a digital computer could do numerical differentiation and integration, but that symbolic manipulation of the function definition was inherently outside the domain of the computer. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png ACM SIGPC Notes Association for Computing Machinery

Abstract

About 20 Years ago, I had the opportunity to see a real computer, an IBM 709. When I asked whether it could do Calculus, I was told that a digital computer could do numerical differentiation and integration, but that symbolic manipulation of the function definition was inherently outside the domain of the computer.
