Notes for users of other computer algebra systems
This page collects differences that affect users of all such systems. Notes for users of specific systems follow on separate pages:
- Notes for GAP users
- Notes for Magma users
- Notes for SageMath users
- Notes for Singular users
- Notes for polymake users
These pages are far from complete. If you are missing something here, or if a difference between OSCAR and the system you know took you a while to understand, please tell us about it, for example by opening an issue on GitHub or on Slack. Contributions to these pages are very welcome.
