Simplify
Usage Message:
Mathematica 4.0
Simplify[expr] performs a sequence of algebraic transformations on expr, and returns the simplest form it finds. Simplify[expr, assum] does simplification using
assumptions.
Mathematica 3.0
Simplify[expr] performs a sequence of algebraic transformations on expr, and returns the simplest form it finds. Attributes[Simplify] = {Protected} Options: ComplexityFunction
-> Automatic
TimeConstraint
-> 300
Trig
-> True
Notes: Simplify[expr] works by
calling polynomial operations such as Factor
and Expand
on expr and subexpressions of expr, and returning the simplest result that it finds. If you know the operations that are needed to achieve the desired
result, it is always possible to do so by invoking those operations directly. Known Bugs: See Factor .
