When assistant Rosetta is launched, you can access the computer algebra programs, Calc, CoCoA, WinCoCoA, Gap, Giac, Jacal, Macaulay and Maxima from their specialized toolbars, when clicking on the corresponding buttons of the assistant's strip. If you wish to try one of them, refer to the corresponding section of chapter 7.

The toolbars of the programsCalc, CoCoA etc. belong to the group of toolbars Alg-1. To launch the other computer algebra programs that you met in the installation tests of the section 3.2 (Pari, Singular, Yacas and Xmaxima), it is necessary to change group of toolbars. To this end, move the cursor of the mouse on the button ../../../images/assist/lampe.gif of the strip, then click on the button Alg-2 . The buttons of the programs Xmaxima, MuPAD Studio, Pari, Singular, Yacas, Aldor, Axiom, CLN and DoCon appear.

Click on the ../../../icones/rosetta/xmax.gif button of the strip then on the button XMAXIMA5.9 of the toolbar Alg\Xmaxima (Fig. 8.1): the Maxima program is launched in a graphic window, entitled Xmaxima. Click on the button integrate of the toolbar Alg\Xmaxima to verify the good working of Maxima in its graphic interface, then close Xmaxima with its option File / Exit or with the button Quitter 5.9 of the toolbar. For a more thorough study of Xmaxima, or if you wish to try one of the four following programs of the group Alg-2 (MuPAD Studio, Pari, Singular or Yacas), refer to the corresponding section of the chapter 8. Note that the last four software of the group Alg-2 are not usable from the CD-ROM: Aldor is not available under Windows, Axiom not yet available in free version, CLN is a library and DoCon is not yet installed. The associated toolbars provide the documentation solely (cf. sec. 8.6 to 8.9).

When moving the cursor on the button ../../../images/assist/lampe.gif of the strip and clicking on the button Alg-3 , the buttons of the programs of the group Alg-3 appear:
