4-12 Computer Algebra Commands
Alphabetical command list
The following pages contain the commands in alphabetical order. See "Computer algebra command
categories" on page 4-5 to view the commands in the order that they appear on the menus. Chapters 11 to 16
in the User’s Guide provide examples using many of these commands.
ABCUV
Type: Command
Description: Returns a solution in polynomials u and v of au+bv =c where a and b are polynomials in the
current CAS independent variable, and c is a value.
Access: Arithmetic, !Þ
POLYNOMIAL
Input: Level 3/Argument 1: The polynomial corresponding to a.
Level 2/Argument 2: The polynomial corresponding to b.
Level 1/Argument 3: The value corresponding to c.
Output: Level 2/Item 1: The solution corresponding to u.
Level 1/Item 2: The solution corresponding to v.
Flags: Exact mode must be set (flag –105 clear).
Numeric mode must not be set (flag –3 clear).
