5.12.14 Simplifying: simplify
The simplify command simplifies an expression. It behaves
like normal for rational functions and algebraic extensions.
For expressions containing transcendental functions, simplify
tries first to rewrite them in terms of algebraically independent
transcendental functions. For trigonometric expressions, this requires
radian mode (check radian in the cas configuration,
see Section 2.5.7, or input angle_radian:=1).
-
simplify takes one argument:
expr, an expression.
- simplify(expr) returns a simplified
version of expr.
