Just a simple question about "quote()".
Could 'quote()' behave the same way on list's elements as "" does. What I mean when you do {a,b,c}.+"" you get {"a","b","c"} I would like to have when doing on list {a,b}.+quote() I would like to get {'a','b'}.
Thank you very much. |

RE: Just a simple question about "quote()".
Hello,
What you seem to want to do is apply quote to each element of the list. I have not tested it, but EXECON("quote(&1)", list); might do what you want. Cyrille Although I work for the HP calculator group, the views and opinions I post here are my own. I do not speak for HP. |

When I wont to use a list with symbolic elements, {a,b,c}, EXECON does not work and gives me the error: "Error: Syntax Error". Cheers |

RE: Just a simple question about "quote()".
hello,
EXECON is a home command. I assumed that you were in home. In cas, there is a similar command called zip if my memory serves me well. But I do not know if it can do what you want as, from memory, it is designed for 2 operands operators. apply might be worth looking at also as it might be a single operand based version of zip.

RE: Just a simple question about "quote()".
Since quote() prevents evaluation of its argument, it's not possible to use it inside a program or functional construction like in apply/map. Maybe you can quote objects in a list with the parser, but not sure...
