I am trying to make Reduce display the expression 1/a + 1/b as the sum
of two fractions.
"off mcd" results in a^-1 + b^-1, however. Is there some other relevant
switch that that I'm not aware of?
Also, a suggestion for the manual, sec 8.3.2, the FACTOR declaration:
"All terms involving fixed powers of the declared expressions are
printed as a product of the fixed
powers and a sum of the rest of the terms."
It took me a while to realize that saying "factor x;" and then "expn;"
puts <expn> in the form of a polynomial in x,
if this can be done. This is a common thing to want to do, and it is not
clear how to do it. I suggest adding a remark
to that effect after the above paragraph.
