Announce: FriCAS 1.3.8 has been released

[anti...@math.uni.wroc.pl]

FriCAS is an advanced computer algebra system. Its capabilities
range from calculus (integration and differentiation) to abstract
algebra. It can plot functions and has integrated help system.

FriCAS 1.3.8 should build on Linux and many Unix like systems (for
example Mac OSX and Cygwin). FriCAS is build on top of Common Lisp;
several Lisps can compile and run FriCAS -- currently supported are
SBCL, Clisp, ECL, Closure CL (former OpenMCL).

Notable changes (compared to version 1.3.7):

- Improvements to integrator, in particular integrator
can now express some integrals in terms of elliptic
integrals.

- More specialized array domains.

- Better handling of cyclotomic polynomials. Roots of
cyclotomic polynomials are now presented in trigonometric
form.

- Preliminary support for timeouts (only when using sbcl).

- 'iterate' is now implemented for Spad.

Bug fixes, in particular:

- Fixes for handling of kernels.

- Fixes for 'elt' when handling segments with increments.

- Fixed handling of predicates in rewrite rules.

- Fixed build with clisp.
