+Here is another example for you to meditate over. It removes quadratic
+terms in a variable from an expanded polynomial:

 @command{ginsh} offers a slightly different implementation of @code{map()}
 that allows applying algebraic functions to operands. The second argument
 to @code{map()} is an expression containing the wildcard @samp{$0} which
