FunctionAdvisor/definition - return the definition of a given mathematical function
Calling Sequence
FunctionAdvisor(definition, math_function)
Parameters
definition
-
literal name; 'definition'
math_function
Maple name of mathematical function
Description
The FunctionAdvisor(definition, math_function) command returns the definition of the function used by the Maple system. This definition is typically in terms of infinite sums or integrals and sometimes in terms of other simpler functions.
Examples
The variables used by the FunctionAdvisor command to create the function calling sequences are local variables. Therefore, the previous example does not depend on z.
To make the FunctionAdvisor command return results using global variables, pass the function call itself when requesting the function definition.
