GAP? Pari/GP? Mathematica? Magma? There is much room for programming in modern pure math research. In fact, I think we will end up seeing much more computer-aided-math than you think.
- pixcavator 18y ago>>GAP? Pari/GP? Mathematica? Magma? Are you suggesting these as tools for mathematicians? Now what is supposed to happen? They have to find problems for these tools? It should be the other way around...

Not to mention that, even outside of experimental math, there are plenty of pain-in-the-ass calculations that computer algebra systems make so much easier.
