Returns the hyperbolic tangent of x.

taylor(f,x,n,a)

Returns the Taylor expansion of f at a. If a is omitted then zero is used. The argument x is the free variable in f and n is the power of the expansion.
Enter
     taylor(1/cos(x),x,6)

Result
          1   2    5    4    61    6
     1 + --- x  + ---- x  + ----- x

test(a,b,c,d,...)

If a is true then b is returned else if c is true then d is returned, etc. If none are true then the test function is returned unevaluated. An expression is true if it evaluates to a nonzero numerical value. If an expression evaluates to zero or a symbolic expression then it is not true. The following relational operators and their equivalent functions can be used:
	==	testeq

	>=	testge

	>	testgt

	<=	testle

	<	testlt
Each relational operator evaluates to 1 if the relation is true and 0 if the relation is false. If the relation cannot be determined then the associated relational function is returned unevaluated.
Enter
	2 < 3

Result
	1

Enter
	3 < 2

Result
	0

Enter
	a < b

Result
	testlt(a,b)
The AND and OR of relations can be implemented using multiplication and addition. For example, the following function returns 1 when x is between a and b, otherwise 0 is returned.
     pulse(x) = test(
          (x >= a) * (x <= b), 1,
          (x < a) + (x > b), 0)		# could use else clause "1, 0)"
Relational operators have lower precedence than addition and multiplication so the relational expressions are parenthesized in this case. In this example the else clause is not used so that pulse returns unevaluated if the relation cannot be determined.

trace(m)

Returns the trace of matrix m.
Enter
     A = ((a,b),(c,d))

     trace(A)

Result
     a + d
Note that trace is equivalent to contract.
Enter
     trace(A) - contract(A,1,2)

Result
     0

transpose(a,i,j)

Returns the transpose of tensor a across indices i and j. If i and j are omitted then indices 1 and 2 are used.

unit(n)

Returns a unit matrix with dimension n.
Enter
     unit(4)

Result
     1    0    0    0

     0    1    0    0

     0    0    1    0

     0    0    0    1

wedge(u,v)

wedge(u,v,w)

Returns the wedge product of tensors.
Enter
     u = (u1,u2,u3,u4)

     v = (v1,v2,v3,v4)

     wedge(u,v)

Result
           0           u1 v2 - u2 v1     u1 v3 - u3 v1     u1 v4 - u4 v1

     -u1 v2 + u2 v1          0           u2 v3 - u3 v2     u2 v4 - u4 v2

     -u1 v3 + u3 v1    -u2 v3 + u3 v2          0           u3 v4 - u4 v3

     -u1 v4 + u4 v1    -u2 v4 + u4 v2    -u3 v4 + u4 v3          0

Enter
     wedge(u,v) + wedge(v,u)

Result
     0

zero(i,j,...)

Returns a zero tensor with dimensions i,j,... The zero function is useful for creating a tensor and then setting the component values.
Enter
     A = zero(2,2)
     A

Result
     0    0

     0    0

Enter
     A[1,2] = a
     A

Result
     0    a
