Lists
From GeoGebra Manual
Using curly braces you can create a list of several objects (e. g. points, segments, circles).
Example:
L = {A, B, C}
gives you a list consisting of three prior defined points A, B, and C.L = {(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 2)}
produces a list that consists of the entered points, as well as these nameless points.
Note: By default, the elements of this list are not shown in the Graphics View.
Compare Lists of Objects
You can compare two lists of objects by using the following syntax:
- List1 == List2: Checks if the two lists are equal and gives you true or false as a result.
- List1 != List2: Checks if the two lists are not equal and gives you true or false as a result.
Apply Pre-defined Operations and Functions to Lists
If you apply operations and pre-defined functions to lists, you will always get a new list as a result.
Addition and subtraction
- List1 + List2: Adds corresponding elements of two lists. Note: The two lists need to be of the same length.
- List + Number: Adds the number to every element of the list.
- List1 – List2: Subtracts the elements of the second list from corresponding elements of the first list. Note: The lists need to be of the same length.
- List – Number: Subtracts the number from every element of the list.
Multiplication and division
- List1 * List2: Multiplies corresponding elements of two lists. Note: The lists need to be of the same length. If the two lists are compatible matrices, matrix multiplication is used.
- List * Number: Multiplies every list element with the number.
- List1 / List2: Divides elements of the first list by corresponding elements of the second list. Note: The two lists need to be of the same length.
- List / Number: Divides every list element by the number.
- Number / List: Divides the number by every element of the list.
Other examples
- List^2: Squares every element of the list.
- 2^List: Creates list of powers of two with exponents from the list.
- List1^List2: Creates list of a^b, where a and b are corresponding elements of List1 and List2.
- sin(List): Applies the sine function to every element of the list. User defined functions can be applied the same way as well.
