Symmetries are described by a + tree of "symmetry" objects that is constructed with the sy_none(), + sy_symm(), sy_anti() and sy_cycl() functions. The symmetry of a function + with respect to its arguments can also be defined (this is currently + only used for the Beta function). +* Generalized map() to take a function object instead of a function pointer. + This allows passing an arbitrary number of additional state to the + function being called. +* color_trace(), dirac_trace(), diff(), expand(), evalf() and normal() work + better with container classes, e.g. using color_trace() on a relation will + take the trace on both sides, using diff() on a matrix differentiates every + element etc. +* diff() works properly with non-commutative products and indexed objects. +* Supplement some (now deprecated) macros by inlined template functions: + - is_of_type(foo, type) -> is_a(foo) + - is_ex_of_type(foo, type) -> is_a(foo) + - is_exaclty_of_type(foo, type) -> is_exaclty_a(foo) + - is_ex_exaclty_of_type(foo, type) -> is_exaclty_a(foo) + - ex_to_foobar(baz) -> ex_to(baz) +* rem(c, p[x], x) erroneously returned p[x] instead of c. + 0.9.0 (7 June 2001) * In the output and in ginsh, lists are now delimited by { } braces, and matrices are delimited by single [ ] brackets.
