Each solution variable starts at its guessed value
if there is one; otherwise, it starts at 0.0.

Use guesses to seek additional solutions one by
one. For convergence, a guess may have to be
rather close to a solution.

Sorts the elements of the first argument in
ascending order.

If you include additional arguments, sorts the
elements of each so that their new positions
match the new positions of the elements in the
first argument.

All arguments must be names of lists or vectors.
All arguments must have equal dimensions.

4444Sphere

Displays the row or column vector in spherical
form [

vector

must be of dimension 3 and can be either a

row or a column vector.

Note:

4444Sphere

is a display-format instruction,

not a conversion function. You can use it only at
the end of an entry line.

startTmr()

CATALOG

startTmr()

integer

Returns the current value of the clock in its
integer representation, giving the

starttime

for a

timer. You can enter the

starttime

as an argument

in

checkTmr()

to determine how many seconds

have elapsed.

You can run multiple timers simultaneously.

Note: See also

checkTmr()

and

timeCnv()
