### E.2.4 Building Singular

The user can build and install Singular with the following standard UNIX-like procedure:

- Download and extract the latest official source package (.tar.gz).
- Run the configure script, for instance, `./configure`.
- Build Singular by running `make`.
- Install Singular by running `make install`.

In contrast to Singular 3, there are now many more configuration options.

All possible options for configure can be seen by running the configure script with option `--help`. On a multicore compute consider running make with the option `-f [cores]`.
