@@ -2,51 +2,10 @@ Math::Symbolic is intended to offer symbolic calculation capabilities to
the Perl programmer without using external (and commercial) libraries
and/or applications.
-Unless, however, some interested and knowledgable developers turn up to
-participate in the development, the library will be severely limited by my
-experience in the area. Symbolic calculations are an active field of
-research in CS.
-
-There are several ways to construct Math::Symbolic trees. There are no
-actual Math::Symbolic objects, but rather trees of objects of subclasses
-of Math::Symbolic. The most general but unfortunately also the least
-intuitive way of constructing trees is to use the constructors of the
-Math::Symbolic::Operator, Math::Symbolic::Variable, and
-Math::Symbolic::Constant classes to create (nested) objects of the
-corresponding types.
-
-Furthermore, you may use the overloaded interface to apply the standard
-Perl operators (and functions, see "OVERLOADED OPERATORS") to existing
-Math::Symbolic trees and standard Perl expressions.
-
Possibly the most convenient way of constructing Math::Symbolic trees is
using the builtin parser to generate trees from expressions such as '2 *
x^5'. You may use the Math::Symbolic->parse_from_string() class method for
this.
-Of course, you may combine the overloaded interface with the parser to
-generate trees with Perl code such as "$term * 5 * 'sin(omega*t+phi)'"
-which will create a tree of the existing tree $term times 5 times the sine
-of the vars omega times t plus phi.
-
-There are several modules in the distribution that contain subroutines
-related to calculus. These are not loaded by Math::Symbolic by default.
-Furthermore, there are several extensions to Math::Symbolic availlable
-from CPAN as separate distributions. Please refer to "SEE ALSO" for an
-incomplete list of these.
-
-For example, Math::Symbolic::MiscCalculus come with Math::Symbolic and
-contains routines to compute Taylor Polynomials and the associated errors.
-
-Routines related to vector calculus such as grad, div, rot, and Jacobi-
-and Hesse matrices are availlable through the
-Math::Symbolic::VectorCalculus module. This module is also able to compute
-Taylor Polynomials of functions of two variables, directional derivatives,
-total differentials, and Wronskian Determinants.
-
-Some basic support for linear algebra can be found in
-Math::Symbolic::MiscAlgebra. This includes a routine to compute the
-determinant of a matrix of Math::Symbolic trees.
