Pav Lucistnik 9746cb0b1a Polymake is a versatile framework for experimental discrete mathematics. The
standard distribution contains tool collections for the algorithmic treatment
of polytopes and polyhedra, and finite simplicial complexes.  It offers an
unified interface to a wide variety of algorithms and free software packages
from the computational geometry field, such as convex hull computation or
visualization tools.

Polymake is a versatile tool for the algorithmic treatment of
polytopes and polyhedra, and finite simplicial complexes.
It offers an unified interface to a wide variety of algorithms
and free software packages from the computational geometry field,
such as convex hull computation or visualization tools.
Polymake is highly adaptable to individual needs. In particular, it
has a C++/perl interface which allows the user to bind his/her own
algorithms into the common framework.
