Are there algorithms to solve non-trivial algebra problems, for example to simplify the following expression:
2x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x - 4
--------------------
x-2
The solution would be 2x^2 + x + 5 + 6/(x-2).
Are there also algorithms for factoring and other algebra-oriented math?
Thanks
For the example you have given, just a simple division of polynomials work. You can get more information from:
