Functions for constructing matrices. This generates a 2×2 matrix whose i,j^th entry is a[i,j]. Here is another way to produce the same matrix.

When you do symbolic calculations, it is quite easy to end up with extremely complicated expressions. Often, you will not even want to see the complete result of a ...

When you do long calculations, it is often convenient to give names to your intermediate results. Just as in standard mathematics, or in other computer languages, you can do ...
