[WP34s] Matrix M.xx vs. M-xx Message #1 Posted by fhub on 12 Oct 2011, 9:58 a.m. The matrix functions have just been renamed again from M.xxx to M-xxx In principle that's ok, but 2 functions look a bit ugly now: M-+ and M-+* ;-)

Re: [WP34s] Matrix M.xx vs. M-xx Message #2 Posted by Marcus von Cube, Germany on 12 Oct 2011, 10:21 a.m., in response to message #1 by fhub I did that because navigating in the catalog(ue)s is harder with a '.' in the name (I keep forgetting to press f before the dot and never get where I want to.) I agree that the two functions you mention don't look pretty. Maybe we change that back to '.' or even no delimiter at all. For me, M-DET or M.DET don't look any better then MDET.

Re: [WP34s] Matrix M.xx vs. M-xx Message #3 Posted by fhub on 12 Oct 2011, 10:29 a.m., in response to message #2 by Marcus von Cube, Germany Yes, M+ and M+* without delimiter would be better. But for all other matrix functions I would keep the delimiter, otherwise some keywords would in fact be quite counterintuitive. And changing it only for some (e.g. MDET, MINV) won't be consistent.
