First( <List> )
Gives a new list that contains the first element of the given list.
Example:
First({1, 4, 3}) yields {1}.
Note: To get the first element use Element({1, 4, 3}, 1).
First( <List>, <Number n of elements> )
Gives a new list that contains just the first n elements of the given list.
Example:
First({1, 4, 3}, 2) yields {1, 4}.
First( <Text> )
Gives first character of the text.
Example:
First("Hello") yields "H".
First( <Text> , <Number n of elements> )
Gives the first n characters of the text.
Example:
First("Hello",2) yields "He".
First( <Locus>, <Number n of elements> )
This command is useful for
Note:
See also Last Command.
