comDenom()
Catalog >
comDenom(
Expr1
,
Var
)
returns a reduced
ratio of numerator and denominator
expanded with respect to
Var
. The terms
and their factors are sorted with
Var
as the
main variable. Similar powers of
Var
are
collected. There might be some incidental
factoring of the collected coefficients.
Compared to omitting
Var
, this often saves
time, memory, and screen space, while
making the expression more
comprehensible. It also makes subsequent
operations on the result faster and less
likely to exhaust memory.
If
Var
does not occur in
Expr1
,
comDenom
(
Expr1
,
Var
)
returns a reduced ratio of an
unexpanded numerator over an unexpanded
denominator. Such results usually save even
more time, memory, and screen space.
Such partially factored results also make
subsequent operations on the result much
faster and much less likely to exhaust
memory.
Even when there is no denominator, the
comden
function is often a fast way to
achieve partial factorization if
factor()
is
too slow or if it exhausts memory.
Hint:
Enter this
comden()
function definition
and routinely try it as an alternative to
comDenom()
and
factor()
.
