CLIFFORD performs various computations in Graßmann and Clifford algebras. It can compute with quaternions, octonions, and matrices with entries in C (B) the Clifford algebra of a vector space V endowed with an arbitrary bilinear form B. Two user-selectable algorithms for the Clifford product are implemented: cmulNUM based on Chevalley’s recursive formula, and cmulRS based on a non-recursive RotaStein sausage. Graßmann and Clifford bases can be used. Properties of reversion in undotted and dotted wedge bases are discussed.
