CESAM is a consistent set of programs and routines designed for the calculations of stellar evolution. Untill now it allows the computation of the evolution from PMS or ZAMS to helium flash for stellar masses of some solar mass. It is constructed in such a way that all the physics works as external routines. The numerical techniques are based on the B-spline formalism. This formalism used both for the integration of the differential equations and for 1D and 2D interpolation schemes of various tables of physical data.
