Level 1/Argument 3: The order for the series expansion. The minimum value is 2, and the

 

maximum value is 20.

Output:

Level 2/Item 1: A list containing the limit as a value and as the equivalent expression, an

 

expression approximating the function near the limit point, and the order of the remainder. These

 

are expressed in terms of a small parameter h.

 

Level 1/Item 2: An expression for h in terms of the original variable.

Flags:

Exact mode must be set (flag –105 clear).

 

Numeric mode must not be set (flag –3 clear).

 

Radians mode must be set (flag –17 set).

Example:

Obtain the second order Taylor series expansion of ln(x) at x=1.

Command:

SERIES(LN(X),1,2)

Result:

{{Limit: 0, Equiv: h, Expans: -1/2*h^2+h, Remain: h^3}, h=X- 1}

SERVER

Command

Type:

Description:

Server Mode Command: Selects Kermit Server mode.

 

A Kermit server (a Kermit device in Server mode) passively processes requests sent to it by the

 

local Kermit. The server receives data in response to SEND, transmits data in response to

 

KGET, terminates Server mode in response to FINISH or LOGOUT, and transmits a directory

 

listing in response to a generic directory request.

Access:

…µSERVER

Flags: I/O Device (–33), I/O Data Format (–35), RECV Overwrite (–36), I/O Messages (–39), I/O Device for Wire (–78)

Input/Output: None

SEVAL

Type: Function

Description: Simplifies the given expression. Simplifies the expression except at the highest level, and also evaluates any existing variables that the expression contains and substitutes these back into the expression.

Access: Catalog, …µ

Input: Level 1/Argument 1: An algebraic expression.

Output: The expression simplified and with existing variables evaluated.

Flags: Exact mode must be set (flag –105 clear). Numeric mode must not be set (flag –3 clear). Radians mode must be set (flag –17 set).

Example: With π stored in the variable Y, and the variables X and Z not in the current path, simplify the following expression. Note that the top-level simplification is not carried out.

Sin(3x – y + 2z – (2x – z)) – Sin(x – 2y + (y + 3z))

Command: SEVAL(SIN(3*X-Y+2*Z-(2*X-Z)) - SIN(X-2*Y+(Y+3*Z))

Result: -SIN(π–(X+3*Z)) -SIN(π–(X+3*Z))
