Substitute

Returns the solution when a value is substituted for a variable

in an expression.

subst(Expr,Var(v)=value(a))

Example:

subst(1/(4+x^2),x=2)

gives

1/8

Partial Fraction

Returns the partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction.

partfrac(RatFrac)

Example:

partfrac(x/(4-x^2))

gives

(1/(x-2)*-2))+(1/

((x+2)*-2))

Extract

Numerator

Returns the numerator of a fraction (after simplifying the

fraction if necessary).

numer(Frac(a/b) or RatFrac)

Example:

numer(10,12)

returns

5

Denominator

Returns the denominator of a fraction (after simplifying the

fraction if necessary).

denom(Frac(a/b) or RatFrac)

Example:

denom(10,12)

returns

6

Left Side

Returns the left side of an equation or the left bound of an

interval.

lhs(Equal(a=b) or Interval(a...b))

Right Side

Returns the right side of an equation or the left bound of an

interval.

rhs(Equal(a=b) or Interval(a...b))

Calculus

Differentiate

With one expression as argument, returns derivative of the

expression with respect to x. With one expression and one

variable as arguments, returns the derivative or partial

derivative of the expression with respect to the variable. With
