SetAttributes[s, attr] adds attr to the list of attributes of the symbol s.

AlgebraicNumberNorm[a] gives the norm of the algebraic number a.

For many kinds of practical calculations, the only operations you will need to perform on polynomials are essentially structural ones. If you do more advanced algebra with ...

Mathematica includes functions for performing a variety of specific algebraic transformations. Some are algorithmically straightforward; others include highly sophisticated ...

Reduce[expr, vars] reduces the statement expr by solving equations or inequalities for vars and eliminating quantifiers. Reduce[expr, vars, dom] does the reduction over the ...

Mathematica's symbolic character allows it to provide deep integrated support for algebraic numbers. At the core are Root objects, which provide exact implicit ...

The representation of algebraic numbers. When you enter a Root object, the polynomial that appears in it is automatically reduced to a minimal form. This extracts the pure ...

SetStreamPosition[stream, n] sets the current point in an open stream.

DynamicSetting[e] represents an object which displays as e, but is interpreted as the dynamically updated current value of Setting[e] if supplied as Mathematica ...

There are often many different ways to write the same algebraic expression. As one example, the expression (1+x)^2 can be written as 1+2x+x^2. Mathematica provides a large ...
