This command differs among variants of English:
|
- Factor[ <Polynomial> ]
- Factors the polynomial.
- Example:
Factor[x^2 + x - 6]yields f(x) = (x-2)(x+3).
CAS view
- Factor[ <Polynomial> ]
- Factors the polynomial.
- Example:
Factor[x^2 - y^2]yields (x + y) (x - y).
- Factorizes an expression with respect to a given variable.
- Example:
Factor[a^2 - x^2, a]gives (-a - x) (-a + x), the factorization of a2 - x2 with respect to a.
- Example:
Factor[a^2 - x^2, x]gives (a + x) (a - x), the factorization of a2 - x2 with respect to x.
