KANT is a software package for mathematicians interested in algebraic number
theory. For those KANT is a tool for sophisticated computations in number
fields, in global function fields, and in local fields.
The main new features of KASH3 (the KAnt SHell) are
* modular type system
* integrated help system with inline help and a reference manual
in html format
* overloading of functions
* local fields (unramified extensions, ramified extensions polynomial
factorization)
* access to the QaoS databases of numberfields and transitive groups
* new generic function names
