FORM is a symbolic manipulation system. It reads text files containing definitions of mathematical expressions as well as statements that tell it how to manipulate these expressions. Its original author is Jos Vermaseren of Nikhef, the Dutch institute for subatomic physics. It is widely used in the theoretical particle physics community, but it is not restricted to applications in this specific field.〔() Some citations of FORM in the INSPIRE-HEP Literature Database〕 == Features == * Definition of mathematical expressions containing various objects (symbols, functions, indices, ...) with elementary arithmetic operations * Arbitrary long mathematical expressions (limited only by disk space) * Multi-threaded execution, parallelized version for computer clusters * Powerful pattern matching and replacing * Fast trace calculation especially of gamma matrices * Built-in mathematical functions * Output into various formats (plain text, Fortran code, Mathematica code) * External communication with other software programs 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FORM (symbolic manipulation system)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
