   I am delighted to learn students are using Rubi as the basis for computer   
   science projects.   
      
   For Rubi to generate correct results, all Dist[u,v,x] needs to do is return   
   u*v, with u distributed over the terms of v. The third argument can safely be   
   ignored.  The definition of Dist is complicated by the need to make results   
   pretty when single-   
   stepping through an integration, but pretty is not essential to being   
   mathematically correct.   
      
   BTW, is SymRubi going to support single-stepping?
