Thanks Bill, thats very helpful. Strangely enough (just for the record) although per is not a known function in FriCAS the following line does not produce a compile error: arbitrary == per(-1) but it did not return the expected type, so I had to do: per(x:Rep):% == x pretend % arbitrary == per(-1) to get the right type. I only mention this to illustrate how messy it seems to be to to translate from one version of Axiom to another, the compiler error messages are not much help with this sort of thing (if only you guys could have a reconciliation and merge the forks back together again!) > I prefer to use the email lists - one list or the other is fine. No problem. (I was just trying to be tactful and avoid triggering a 'fork x is better than fork y' discussion but I guess people here are grown up enough not to do that).
