<h2>Overview</h2>

<p>Nemo is a computer algebra package for the Julia programming language, maintained by
<a href="mailto:goodwillhart {at_thingy} googlemail dot com">William Hart</a>,
Tommy Hofmann, Claus Fieker and Fredrik Johansson with additional code by
Oleksandr Motsak and other
<a href="http://nemocas.org/authors.html">contributors</a>.</p>

<p>The features of Nemo so far include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Multiprecision integers and rationals</li>
<li>Integers modulo <i>n</i></li>
<li>p-adic numbers</li>
<li>Finite fields (prime and non-prime order)</li>
<li>Number field arithmetic</li>
<li>Maximal orders of number fields</li>
<li>Arithmetic of ideals in maximal orders</li>
<li>Arbitrary precision real and complex balls</li>
<li>Generic polynomials, power series, fraction fields, residue rings and matrices</li>
</ul>

<p>A Julia package for algebraic number theory, called <a href="https://github.com/thofma/hecke">Hecke</a>
is also being developed on top of Nemo by Tommy Hofmann and Claus Fieker.</p>

<p>Nemo is written in the <a href="http://julialang.org">Julia</a> programming language and runs on many
platforms (including Linux, Mac OS X, Windows and BSD).</p>
