          <dc:description>We have designed Circular Reasoner, a package in Mathematica for the specification of functional programs using rewrite rules. The package detects certain recursions of a cyclical nature, and through repeated refinement of a set of initial guesses of final values for relevant terms, arrives at a value consistent with the equations used to define the functional program. We discuss this package and its implementation.</dc:description>
