Algae is an interpreted language for numerical analysis.  Algae was
developed because we needed a fast and versatile tool, capable of
handling large problems.  Algae has been applied to interesting
dynamics problems in aerospace and related fields for more than a
decade.

Algae was designed and implemented by Scott Hunziker and Mike Brennan.

The file "doc/algae.ps" is the Algae User's Manual in postscript form.
A list of known bugs is given in the "Bugs" section of the manual.
Read the file "INSTALL" for installation instructions.  The file
"NEWS" describes significant changes made between versions.  The
"examples" directory contains some warped examples -- look at the
files in the "tools" directory for more typical Algae code.
