Cambridge Algebra System (CAMAL) is a computer algebra system written in Cambridge University by David Barton, Steve Bourne, and John Fitch. It was initially used for computations in celestial mechanics [1] [2] and general relativity. The foundation code was written in Titan computer assembler. [3][ better source needed] In 1973, when Titan was replaced with an IBM370/85, it was rewritten in ALGOL 68C and then BCPL [4] where it could run on IBM mainframes and assorted microcomputers. [5]
