Summary: A package, BayesCalc, is presented that extends the standard possibilities of Mathematica. The implemented extensions allow the automatic, symbolic calculation of many operations needed in the daily application of Bayesian theory. The main feature of the package is the symbolic calculation of posterior probabilities. Some examples are given to illustrate the proposed package.
