de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux 18 ( 2006 ) , 721 – 727 GiANT : Graphical Algebraic Number Theory par

While most algebra is done by writing text and formulas, diagrams have always been used to present structural information clearly and concisely. Text shells are the de facto interface for computational algebraic number theory, but they are incapable of presenting structural information graphically. We present GiANT, a newly developed graphical interface for working with number fields. GiANT offers interactive diagrams, drag-and-drop functionality, and typeset formulas.
