Comment This is a standard test file for REDUCE that has been used for
many years.  It only tests a limited number of facilities in the
current system.  In particular, it does not test floating point
arithmetic, or any of the more advanced packages that have been made
available since REDUCE 3.0 was released.  It does however test more
than just the alg package in which it is now stored.  It has been used
for a long time to benchmark the performance of REDUCE.  A description
of this benchmarking with statistics for REDUCE 3.2 was reported in Jed
B. Marti and Anthony C. Hearn, "REDUCE as a Lisp Benchmark", SIGSAM
Bull. 19 (1985) 8-16.  That paper also gives information on the the
parts of the system exercised by the test file.  Updated statistics may
be found in the "timings" file in the REDUCE Network Library;

comment some examples of the FOR statement;

comment summing the squares of the even positive integers
        through 50;

for i:=2 step 2 until 50 sum i**2;

comment to set  w  to the factorial of 10;

w := for i:=1:10 product i;

comment alternatively, we could set the elements a(i) of the
        array  a  to the factorial of i by the statements;

array a(10);

a(0):=1$

for i:=1:10 do a(i):=i*a(i-1);

comment the above version of the FOR statement does not return
        an algebraic value, but we can now use these array
        elements as factorials in expressions, e. g.;

1+a(5);

comment we could have printed the values of each a(i)
        as they were computed by writing the FOR statement as;

for i:=1:10 do write a(i):= i*a(i-1);

comment another way to use factorials would be to introduce an
operator FAC by an integer procedure as follows;

integer procedure fac (n);
   begin integer m;
        m:=1;
    l1: if n=0 then return m;
        m:=m*n;
        n:=n-1;
        go to l1
   end;

comment we can now use  fac  as an operator in expressions, e. g.;

z**2+fac(4)-2*fac 2*y;

comment note in the above example that the parentheses around
the arguments of FAC may be omitted since it is a unary operator;

comment the following examples illustrate the solution of some
        complete problems;

comment the f and g series (ref  Sconzo, P., Leschack, A. R. and
         Tobey, R. G., Astronomical Journal, Vol 70 (May 1965);

deps:= -sigma*(mu+2*epsilon)$
dmu:= -3*mu*sigma$
dsig:= epsilon-2*sigma**2$
f1:= 1$
g1:= 0$
 
for i:= 1:8 do 
 <<f2:=-mu*g1 + deps*df(f1,epsilon) + dmu*df(f1,mu) + dsig*df(f1,sigma);
   write "F(",i,") := ",f2;
   g2:= f1 + deps*df(g1,epsilon) + dmu*df(g1,mu) + dsig*df(g1,sigma);
   write "G(",i,") := ",g2;
   f1:=f2;
   g1:=g2>>;

mass ki= 0, kf= 0, p1= m, pf= m;

vector eei,ef;

mshell ki,kf,p1,pf;

let p1.eei= 0, p1.ef= 0, p1.pf= m**2+ki.kf, p1.ki= m*k,p1.kf=

    -1; 

operator gp;

for all p let gp(p)= g(l,p)+m;

comment this is just to save us a lot of writing;

gp(pf)*(g(l,ef,eei,ki)/(2*ki.p1) + g(l,eei,ef,kf)/(2*kf.p1))
  * gp(p1)*(g(l,ki,eei,ef)/(2*ki.p1) + g(l,kf,ef,eei)/(2*kf.p1))$

factor mm,p1.p3;

    g(lb,iz)*gb(q2)*g(lb,ix)*gb(p1)*g(lb,iz)*gb(qi)*g(lb,iy))$

let qi=p1-k1, q2=p3+k1;

comment it is usually faster to make such substitutions after all the
        trace algebra is done;

write "CXN =",ws;
