Abstract

Most of computer algebra systems were designed to have a command line interface. However, the interaction with CAS engine through terminal on tablets is too inefficient. A user have to switch the software keyboard over and over again to complete the input operation. We need a GUI for computer algebra system on tablets. This article describes an implementation method of a handwriting CAS app.
