This document explains the primary uses of the &SCO; package. Included in this manual is a documented list of the most important methods and functions you will need. For the theoretical basis of this package please refer to my diploma thesis and the corresponding paper (work in progress; ).

The &SCO; package would not have been possible without the theoretical work by I. Moerdijk and D. A. Pronk concerning simplicial cohomology of orbifolds . Many thanks to these two, as well as Mohamed Barakat and the Lehrstuhl B für Mathematik at RWTH Aachen University in general. It should be noted that &SCO; in its current functionality is dependent on the &GAP; package &homalg; by M. Barakat , as it relies on &homalg; to do the actual computations. This manual was created with the help of the &GAPDoc; package by M. Neunhöffer and F. Lübeck.
