Expand[ <Expression> ]
Expands the expression.
Example: Expand[(2 x - 1)^2 + 2 x + 3] yields 4 x^2 - 2 x + 4.
Note: This command needs to load the Computer Algebra System, so can be slow on some computers. Try using the Polynomial Command instead.

CAS Syntax

Expand[ <Expression> ]
Expands the expression.
Example: Expand[(2 x - 1)^2 + 2 x + 3] yields 4 x^2 - 2 x + 4.
