R help - Aug 2012 - Symbolic computation in R-solving system of equations

Hi,

   To my knowledge, Ryacas can do symbolic computation in R, like
Mathematica or Maple.

   I wonder if it (or any other R package) can solve symbolically a system
of equations? I have a system of four equations in four variables
(non-linear, but not very hard to solve) and wonder if Ryacas or any other
package can do it. I do not find the solution in Ryacas. Can it find a
symbolic solution to a linear system?

   Thanks,

Miao

Ryacas provides an interface to yacas from R. So my suggestion is to search the
web to see if yacas can solve your specific problem.
