This package makes it possible to add symbolic algebra to Octave[0] through mtt[1] or the symbolic[2] package from Octave Forge.
Tested on amd64 (not yet with Octave). pkg/DESCR: The name GiNaC is an iterated and recursive abbreviation for GiNaC is Not a CAS, where CAS stands for Computer Algebra System. It has been developed to become a replacement engine for xloops which in the past was powered by the Maple CAS. Its design is revolutionary in a sense that contrary to other CAS it does not try to provide extensive algebraic capabilities and a simple programming language but instead accepts a given language (C++) and extends it by a set of algebraic capabilities.
