  • This message is generated when the value of the ComplexityFunction option in Simplify or FullSimplify does not give a real number when it is applied to the indicated expression.
  • Off[message] switches off the message; On[message] switches it on. For example: Off[FullSimplify::cfn].

Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

The value of ComplexityFunction does not give a real number when applied to expressions:

Wolfram Language code: Simplify[1 + x + y(1 + x), ComplexityFunction -> -Length]

This shows a valid value for the ComplexityFunction option in Simplify:

Wolfram Language code: Simplify[1 + x + y(1 + x), ComplexityFunction -> (-Length[#]&)]
