Normal
Normal
[
expr
]
converts
expr
to a normal expression, from a variety of special forms.
MORE INFORMATION
Normal
[
expr
]
converts
SparseArray
objects into ordinary arrays.
Normal
[
expr
]
converts a power series to a normal expression by truncating higher-order terms.
Normal
[
expr
]
converts
GraphicsComplex
objects into ordinary lists of graphics primitives and directives.
Normal
[
expr
]
if possible converts
Rotate
,
Translate
,
Scale
and
AffineTransform
constructs into explicit graphics primitives.
Normal
[
expr
]
converts
RootSum
objects into explicit sums involving
Root
objects.
When additional "data types" are introduced,
Normal
should be defined to convert them, when possible, to normal expressions.
