Would some of you Milo users please comment on the utility of the
program?  Is it a (reasonably complete) symbolic math package?  I.e.,
does it purport to solve problems similar to the ones that, for
example, Mathematica does?

To be more specific, can it factor polynomials, expand mathematical
expressions, do substitutions, do symbolic differentiation and
integration?   Can it do arbitrary precision arithmetic?

The blurb on the back of the package seems to hint that this is so,
but it is not clear how powerful the algebra engine is.
