show: Print methods

In jordan: A Suite of Routines for Working with Jordan Algebras

Description

Show methods, to display objects at the prompt

Usage

albert_show(x)
spin_show(x)
jordan_matrix_show(x)
description(x,plural=FALSE)

Arguments

x	Jordan object
plural	Boolean, indicating whether plural form is to be given

Details

The matrix-based algebras use a show method that modifies the row and column names of the underlying matrix slightly.

Spin factors are displayed with the scalar component offset from the vector component.

Print methods for special algebras are sensitive to the value of option head_and_tail, a two-element integer vector indicating the number of start lines and end lines to print.

Function description() gives a natural-language description of its argument, used in the print method.

Value

Returns the argument
