Algebra`SymmetricPolynomials`
New functions SymmetricPolynomial and SymmetricReduction have been added to the built-in Mathematica kernel.
The degree of the polynomial is now given as the first argument for SymmetricPolynomial:
Version 5.2

SymmetricPolynomial[{x, y, z, t}, 3]](Files/SymmetricPolynomials.en/legacy_1.gif)
SymmetricReduction is now a built-in function:
Version 5.2
![SymmetricReduction[(x + y)^2 + (x + z)^2 + (z + y)^2, {x, y, z}]](Files/SymmetricPolynomials.en/legacy_2.gif)
