March 2012 Release A new volume, Volume 8.1, the Axiom Gallery shows examples of Axiom graphics. These are test cases being collected to show capabilities of the graphics subsystems.
One of the outstanding graphics bugs was 7217 which gave odd values for graphics labels. This was fixed by picking up Waldek's patch for coercion to InputForm. This had the unfortunate side effect that a large number of Axiom's 35,000 test cases needed to be updated. A particularly interesting article on Literate Programming and Reproducible Research was published in the Journal of Statistical Software and was added to the documentation page. (http://www.jstatsoft.org/v46/i03/paper) There are two new commands, )tangle and )regress. A new function, getAncestors was added to the API domain. The buglist was published and several bugs were added. New references to Axiom were added to the bibliography, including Dav12, Jen79, Dav80 Several people contributed to this release, including James Davenport, Mark Clements, George Legendre, and Waldek Hebisch bookvol5.pamphlet add )tangle and )regress commands bookvol10.4.pamphlet add Mark Clements, George Legendre fix 7217 bugs books/bookvol5 add Mark Clements, George Legendre fix 7217 bugs books/bookvol8.1 A new volume, the Axiom Gallery, showing example graphics books/bookvolbib add additional Axiom literature references books/ps/ add v81* for graphics gallery readme add Mark Clements, George Legendre src/algebra Makefile fix GUESS, clique1, and clique2 handling src/axiom-website/ add jstat article src/input/ add testpackage.input update pasta.input graphics test cases fix 7216 bugs _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list Axiom-developer@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
