ABSTRACT

The comparison of algebraic manipulation systems is a difficult task. Nevertheless, I think that some of the conclusions stated in "Solutions of Problem # 2" in the last SIGSAM Bulletin are not entirely valid. I would like to voice some specific objections, especially as they concern LISP and MACSYNA.
