frobby is Computations With Monomial Ideals

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install frobby on Fedora 34.

What is frobby

Frobby is a software system and project for computations with monomial ideals. Frobby is free software and it is intended as a vehicle for research on monomial ideals, as well as a useful practical tool for investigating monomial ideals. The current functionality includes Hilbert series, maximal standard monomials, combinatorial optimization on monomial ideals, primary decomposition, irreducible decomposition, Alexander dual, associated primes, minimization and intersection of monomial ideals as well as the computation of Frobenius problems (using 4ti2) with very large numbers. Frobby is also able to translate between formats that can be used with several different computer systems, such as Macaulay 2, Monos, 4ti2, CoCoA4 and Singular. Thus Frobby can be used with any of those systems.

We can use yum or dnf to install frobby on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install frobby.

Install frobby on Fedora 34 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00

Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install frobby using dnf by running the following command:

sudo dnf -y install frobby

Install frobby on Fedora 34 Using yum

Update yum database with yum using the following command.

sudo yum makecache --refresh

The output should look something like this:

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00

Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
Metadata cache created.

After updating yum database, We can install frobby using yum by running the following command:

sudo yum -y install frobby
