We use Schoonschip here, it costs approx $400,-, comes in a blue cartridge
and can be ordered from the author:
Topsoft, Inc.
2300 Woodside
Ann Arbor, Mi 48104
Schoonschip is a simple but powerful language to handle big (<100000 terms)
expressions, do not expect factorization, diiferentiation etc built-in.
I have seen a PD version of Reduce form Germany, but also heard that this
version is illegal, so I do not know what the verdict is.
Being tested here but not yet available is Form, a program of the Schoonschip
type which can handle larger expressions and is faster still.
Hope this helps,
G. J. van Oldenborgh
