I agree with Alexei, here is a similar example that I put together some time ago using Python, perhaps a high level script would be a better tool for the job! Enjoy.

I wish to write a few programs that do something like this: take a graph or a tree each vertex or edge of the graph has a variable associated with it. walk on the graph or find certain subgraphs, and compute certain multivariable polynomials in terms of the variables associated with vertices or edges.
I think boost.graph (for graph manipulations) and GiNaC (for symbolic computation) is a reasonable choice.
later possibly do numerical optimization of the polynomials using an optimization library.
Be forewarned: GiNaC does not provide any kind of numerical optimization.
I thought GiNaC would be ideal for this type of applications because C++ will give me complete control over the data structures and the efficiency.
I suggest to think twice if you really need a low level programming language (such as C++) at all.
Best regards, Alexei
