The Science of Restoring What is Missing and Equating Likes

In this DrRacket library, I intend to write fuctions that perform all basic algebraic manipulations to the [American] high-school level, at least.

Project structure:

• Start with directory for each axiom
  • Create .rtk files and write code that gets that axiom functioning
• Merge axiom files into core axioms.rtk file in the project's root directory.
• Find a better way to organize the files

About the name:

• The Science of Restoring What is Missing and Equating Like With Like
  • Hmm. "SORWIMAELWL" That won't work.
    • The Science of Restoring What is Missing and Equating Likes
      • S O R W I M A E L W L
        • Sorwimael
          • Ha! that works!
          • (pronounce /soɻwɪmaeɫ/)

This is a translation of the title of an old book, "'الكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة" by the mathematician al-Ḵwārizmī. It was his treaste on Algebra.
