NERO _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ switch
When nero is on, zero assignments (such as matrix elements) are not printed.
matrix a; a := mat((1,0),(0,1)); A(1,1) := 1 A(1,2) := 0 A(2,1) := 0 A(2,2) := 1 on nero; a; MAT(1,1) := 1 MAT(2,2) := 1 a(1,2);
nothing is printed.
b := 0;
nothing is printed.
off nero; b := 0; B := 0
nerois often used when dealing with large sparse matrices, to avoid being overloaded with zero assignments.
