TagSet
f
/:
lhs
=
rhs assigns rhs to be the value of lhs, and associates the assignment with the symbol f.
TagSet defines upvalues or downvalues as appropriate.
The symbol f in f
/:
lhs
=
rhs must appear in lhs as the head of lhs, the head of the head, one of the elements of lhs, or the head of one of the elements.
A common case is f
/:
h
[
f
[
args
]]
=
rhs.
You can see all the rules associated with a particular symbol by typing ?
symbol.
If f appears several times in lhs, then f
/:
lhs
=
rhs associates the assignment with each occurrence.
When it appears in symbolic form, TagSet is treated as a scoping construct (see Section A.3.8).
See the Mathematica book: Section 2.4.10, Section A.5.2.
