Description This paper presents two algorithms. The first decides the existence of a pointed homotopy between given simplicial maps f, g : X -> Y, and the second computes the group [Sigma X, Y]* of pointed homotopy classes of maps from a suspension; in both cases, the target Y is assumed simply connected. More generally, these algorithms work relative to A subset of X.
