We present an algorithm for computing [X,Y], i.e., all homotopy classes of continuous maps X -> Y, where X,Y are topological spaces given as finite simplicial complexes, Y is (d-1)-connected for some d>1 (for example, Y can be the d-dimensional sphere), and dim X<=2d-2. These conditions on X,Y guarantee that [X,Y] has a natural structure of a finitely generated Abelian group, and the algorithm finds its structure.
