Sage Days (Algorithms in Number Theory and FLINT)
Scientific Organisers: John Cremona, William Hart, Marco Streng, Fredrik Johansson. Administrative Organisers: Hazel Higgens, Annette Anderson
What
A Sage Days workshop around the theme of Algorithms in Number Theory and FLINT.
Sage is an Open Source distribution of mathematical software. See http://www.sagemath.org/
FLINT (Fast Library for Number Theory) is a fast Open Source C library for support of computations in Number Theory which is a component of Sage. See http://www.flintlib.org/
See below for further details on the aims of this Sage Days. Please feel free to add additional project suggestions.
