NOTES:
  1. . Due to some changes in Maple's programming language from release 3 to release 4, 'Clifford' ver. 2 does not work yet under the newest release 4. Plans are under way to acommodate these changes.
  2. . In order to execute files described below, install the 'Clifford' package per instructions contained in the readme.txt file.

A theoretical background for the files described below can be found in the reference cited above.

Filename         Type    Size    Description

phitab.ms     -  ASCII  71,405   A Maple V (R. 3) worksheet where the
                                 algebra isomorphism phi: Cl(Q) -> Cl(B)
                                 discussed in the paper is defined and its
                                 values are calculated.  The values of phi
                                 are stored in phimulta.m file.

phitab.txt    -  ASCII   6.102   .txt version of phitab.ms.

phimulta.m    - binary  58,392   A remember table of phi.

test19.ms     - ASCII   61,084   A Maple V (R. 3) worksheet where it is
                                 shown that phi is an algebra isomorphism.

test19.txt    - ASCII   10,279   .txt version of test19.ms

phi.zip       - binary  51,974   A .zip file containing all the above files.
For Windows Users

If you run Maple V R. 3 under Windows 3.1, 3.11, or Windows 95, first install the 'Clifford' package per instructions in readme.txt.

Then, view and/or execute phitab.ms and test19.ms.

For Other Operating Systems

If you run Maple V R. 3 under DOS or some other operating system, first install the 'Clifford' package per instructions in readme.txt.

Then, view and/or execute phitab.ms and test19.ms.
