One of the to-do's at
http://www.axiom-developer.org/axiom-website/currentstate.html
is "Write Notebook Front End".
I think that this should be do-able by somebody with expertise, and with
time on their hands (i.e, not me!). Sage does it by simply piggy-backing
on iPython (http://ipython.org/),
I should mention that I have the same errors with a compiled axiom, the
axiom from the Ubuntu repositories (installed with sudo apt-get install
axiom), and the axiom Ubuntu binaries downloaded and installed from the
axiom-developer.org site.
Thanks,

Hello,
I'm just looking at axiom again after some years, and I've run into a

FF(7,4), and the defining polynomial f of that field. Thus:

As some of you may know, this semester I am using Axiom in a cryptography
subject. I have asked my students to comment briefly on what they
like/dislike about it. Some like it, and find it "intuitive", while others
dislike it. One comment in particular was:

Hi,
I'm using Axiom with some cryptography students; at this very early stage we
are having fun with very simple ciphers (Vigenere, Hill, etc), so we need to
transfer from a string to a list of integers.
Here is how to reproduce the bug: on windows Axiom, enter the following tiny
function:

I have asked my student to try installing wh-sandbox, and to keep a
record of how he does it. If he's successful, I'll let you know. If
he's unsuccessful, I'll ask here again!

There's instructions for building Axiom on Mac OS X at

Are these instructions current? I have a student who would like to
use Axiom on Mac OS X, and would prefer a native version, rather than
a windows or linux version running in an emulator.
Thanks,

It may be that the negative views of Axiom are simply due to Axiom
being very poorly (read "not at all") marketed - there are no
elementary books about the use of Axiom, and if you go to the Axiom
website, it is hard to find introductory beginner's or tutorial
articles. Contrast this last with Max

Admittedly I'm very new to the Axiom game, but in the few months I've been
involved, the Axiom mail-lists have been almost exclusively concerned with
meta-mathematics: emacs and TeXmacs, version control systems, and just

Given two lists,for example:

it seems that the sum of the pairwise product is obtained by
reduce(+,[z.i*w.i for i in 1..6])
which is all very well. But why doesn't
sum(z.i*w.i,i=1..6)
work? I mean, sum(i^2,i=1..6) is fine.
