| May 20, 2010 at 2:29 | comment | added | Jacques Carette | Do use symbolic computation to present and explore nontrivial examples from mathematics. I don't think you'll get as much traction from the basic algorithms, and the algorithms that CASes actually use really need a lot more background [but then, they are rather interesting]. | |
