Sollya User's Manual

Name:

points controls the number of points chosen by Sollya in certain commands.

Usage:

points = n : integer -> void points = n ! : integer -> void points : constant

Parameters:

n represents the number of points

Description:

points is a global variable. Its value represents the number of points used in numerical algorithms of Sollya (namely dirtyinfnorm, dirtyintegral, dirtyfindzeros, plot).

Example 1:

   > f=x^2*sin(1/x);
   > points=10;
   The number of points has been set to 10.
   > dirtyfindzeros(f, [0;1]);
   [|0, 0.318309886183790671537767526745028724068919291480918|]
   > points=100;
   The number of points has been set to 100.
   > dirtyfindzeros(f, [0;1]);
