Noone has yet mentioned the computer algebra system for General Relativity
(talk about esoteric?) called SHEEP: it's not an acronym, but it was a
devlopment of the earlier program, Lisp Algebraic Manipulator, called
(you guessed it) LAM.

Ho ho.

Anyone out there know of similar progressions (apart from the B->C->C++)?
