A computer algebra system (CAS) is a software program that facilitates symbolic mathematics. Typically, these systems include
- arbitrary precision (bignum) arithmetic, allowing for instance to evaluate pi to 10,000 digits.
- symbolic manipulation engine, to simplify algebraic expressions, differentiate and integrate functions and solve equations
- graphing facility, to produce graphs of functions, typically in two and three dimensions
- linear algebra subsystem, to allow matrix computations and solving of systems of linear equations
- high level programming language, allowing users to implement their own algorithms
