User flags.
You may change the behavior of Erable
by clearing or setting
some user flags (and the system flag -27). Here are the most important
flags of Erable
(see section (D) for a complete list):
- flag 1: display flag (if set then verbose mode selected)
- flag 10: integer arithmetic (if set then
Erable
expects
integer arguments for instructions like GCD3
, ABCUV
or
DIV2
).
- flag 12: simplification flag (if set then
Erable
calls the gcd
algorithm if needed)
- flag 13: complex flag (if cleared, all expressions are assumed
to be real and
Erable
tries to return only real expressions)
- flag 15: real are integer flag (if set, real are assumed to be integer)
- flag 21: recurse flag (if set, the simplification algorithms
EXPA
and TSIMP
will simplify in subexpressions)
- system flag -27: if set, then the user representation of
complex numbers is symbolic.
To set a flag (e.g. flag 13), type 13 SF
. To clear this flag,
type 13 CF
.
