Abstract
This note describes briefly a technique, easily implemented with most compu ter algebra systems, for the purpose of computing the two-body expansions ( in powers of the eccentricity and in Fourier series of the mean-anomaly) of a large class of functions of the distance, the true anomaly and/or the ec centric anomaly.
