Apart


Usage Message:

Apart[expr] rewrites a rational expression as a sum of terms with minimal denominators. Apart[expr, var] treats all variables other than var as constants.

Attributes[Apart] = {Listable, Protected}

Options:

Modulus -> 0

Trig -> False

Related Symbols:

ApartSquareFree , Cancel , Factor , Modulus , Together , Trig

Notes:

Apart[expr, var] computes a partial fraction decomposition of expr with respect to the variable var.

Apart can also be used with one argument, in which case the partial fraction decomposition is done with respect to a variable chosen from expr, usually the last element in Variables[expr]. Since this choice may not be what you want, the one-argument form of Apart is not recommended unless expr contains only one variable.
