Macaulay2 is a system for computing in commutative algebra, algebraic geometry
and related fields. The system was originally written by Dan Grayson and Mike
Stillman. David Eisenbud joined the project a number of years ago, and many
users are writing packages for the system, and some are contributing source
code. See our web page Macaulay2.com for more details and for
downloading binary releases.
The structure of this directory is as follows:
M2: contains everything needed by a user to build Macaulay2.
bugs: contains older bug reports.
See CITATION.cff for information about citing Macaulay2.
Contributions
Contributions to the code of Macaulay2 are welcome.
The source code is available via our GitHub repository,
where you can also report bugs via the issue tracker.
For brief instructions, see here.
To start working on an existing github "issue", volunteer to work on it, so
you can get "assigned" to the issue, thereby preventing duplication of
effort.
To make a contribution, submit a "pull request" on github. If the
contribution involves changing an existing package in a non-trivial way, we
will normally contact the authors to get their approval of the change. If a
new package with mathematical content is submitted, it will normally be
accepted if it can be installed with installPackage and the tests pass as
determined by check, in the latest version of Macaulay2.
