- Simplify[Function]
- Simplifies the terms of the given function, if possible.
- Example:
Simplify[x + x + x]
gives you a function f(x) = 3x.
- Simplify[Text]
- Attempts to tidy up text expressions by removing repeated negatives etc.
- Example:
for a=b=c=-1Simplify["f(x) = "+a+"x²+"+b+"x+"+c]
returns "f(x)=-x^2-x-1".
Note: The FormulaText Command normally produces better results and is simpler.
