Computational simplicial homology in APL
Jeffrey O. Shallit · 1982
In this paper, we describe a set of APL programs prepared by the author for computation of homology groups of simplicial complexes. These programs may be used in conjunction with a first course in algebraic topology in several ways: to help the student gain an intuitive feel for homology theory, to suggest plausible conjectures in algebraic topology, and to aid proofs.
