RE: Variable e not usable for local-variable
(09-01-2015 10:01 PM)Arno K Wrote: The program mentioned in the other thread needed some local variables, as I am lazy I usually take short names and came up with e, as it should hold the result of euler(n), the editor refused to take it. So I used the cas to find out that e cannot be taken as a variable at all although I think to have read that all small letters are available. Neither e nor i can be used as variables in Home or in CAS.

Even though i is often displayed as a stylized i, it can be keyed in by the user as a plain i, so i must still remain a reserved PPL word. So even if they started calling e "e", it wouldn't stop e from being a reserved PPL word. <0|ΙΈ|0> -Joe- |
