DESCRIPTION

       axiom  is  a  fomerly  proprietary,  newly open-source, interactive computer algebra program.  Opensource
       axiom now has support for both graphics and the hyperdoc help system.  Please refer to  these  facilities
       for  detailed  usage  instructions.  This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       A good but slightly out of date source of documentation can be found in the book  Axiom:  The  Scientific
       Computation  System, by Richard D. Jenks and Robert S. Sutor available through amazon.com.  A pdf version
       of this book is now included in the axiom-doc package.

FILES

       ~/.axiom.input
