User documentation

Normaliz is a tool for computations in affine monoids, vector configurations, lattice polytopes, and rational cones.

Here we should include the manual for the normaliz flags/functions, but we wait until libnormaliz interface is more stable. For the moment look at the examples for available functions on NormalizCones and setting flags.

Examples

• ex-Normaliz1.C
• ex-Normaliz2.C

Download and compile Normaliz

• CoCoALib (still at 29th July 2011) requires a more recent version than the official Normaliz release. The authors will be quite happy to send you a snapshot in the meanwhile.
  Download and compile Normaliz following the instructions from the website. Then configure and compile CoCoALib typing

    cd CoCoALib-0.99
    ./configure --with-libnormaliz=<your_path_to>/libnormaliz.a
    make
