EXAMPLES OF SYNTAX FOR MATHEMATICAL OPERATORS
3∗5
multiply element 3 by element 5
3/5 divide element 3 by element 5
(3..5)/(8..10) same as 3/8, 4/9, 5/10
3+5 add element 3 to element 5
3–5 subtract element 5 from element 3
(3,9,5)–(8,7,10) same as 3–8, 9–7, 5–10
3∗2.0
multiply element 3 by a fixed number 2
2^3.0 raise element 2 to the third power
