- 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.
