gcfac is a factoring function that attempts to apply the same heuristics
which scientists apply in trying to make expressions simpler. gcfac is
limited to monomial-type factoring. For a sum, gcfac does the following:
Item (3) does not necessarily do an optimal job of pairwise factoring because of the combinatorially-difficult nature of finding which of all possible rearrangements of the pairs yields the most compact pair-factored result.
load("scifac") loads this function.
demo(scifac) shows a demonstration of this function.
