Erable
accept infinity arguments.
The
symbol may be obtained from the keyboard by
-right shift-I in normal mode or -right shift-DEL
in user mode followed by ENTER
. The
symbol is obtained
by hitting the quote key, the - key and -right shift-I or
-right shift-DEL
followed by ENTER
.
and
are understood as unsigned infinity (with
the following exception:
is understood as
in a bound
of an integral or in a LIMIT
instruction).
The ? symbol means that the result of an operation
is undefined. All operations involving ? will return ? after
simplifications.
?
for some expressions which are not
undetermined, like
.
Be aware of the fact that arithmetic operations on infinities may return
false answers because Erable
can not check for nullity if non
rational expressions are encoutered.
For example
will return
instead
of 0.
This remark applies to the LIMIT
instruction too (call SERIES
if the answer of LIMIT
seems false).
