Can you explain what happens when it doesn’t work? On my side it seems to works fine.

I’ve done some tests with your program 2 and if I’m correct it seems that there is an issue when the CAS function legendre() is called from a CAS program:
  • When called from CAS it returns a polynom of x, for ex. legendre(3) returns 5/2*x^3-3/2*x
  • However when called from a CAS program it returns a polynom of X instead of x: 5/2*X^3-3/2*X

    For example if you add the following line in your code: f:=legendre(nr); just before a0:=subst(diff(legendre(nr)),x=M2(i)); then after running your program, if you type CAS.f you will get 5/2*X^3-3/2*X.
    Same for diff(legendre(nr)) which returns: 15/2*X^2-3/2
    As X is a global predefined variable, then a0 is always evaluated to the same value and just depends on the value of X (-3/2 if X=0, its default value).
