This paper discusses the pros and cons of using a functional language for implementing a computer algebra system. The contributions of the paper are twofold. Firstly, we discuss some language-centered design aspects of a computer algebra system - the "language unity" concept. Secondly, we provide an implementation of a fast polynomial multiplication algorithm, which is one of the core elements of a computer algebra system. The goal of the paper is to test the feasibility of an implementation of (some elements of) a computer algebra system in a modern functional language. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
