Hi, I'm new to axiom and tried to count the elements in a cyclic list and expected to get %PositiveInfiniy as Answer. Instead it resulted in an infinite loop. Version is Axiom 3.9 (September 2005)
======================================= What I've did: u:= [9,2,4,7]; concat! (u, [1,2,42]); end := rest(u,4); part := rest(u,2); setrest!(end, part); u is now [9,2,(42,7,1)] -- the () are the cyclic part when you count the elements using "#u" then it resolves in a loop. ======================================= What I 've expected: There should be a Property like "isCyclic?" that tests if the list is cyclic. The new code for counting should be something like count(x) == if isCyclic? x then return ?PositiveInfinity else #x ======================================= Question: Is this fixed already in a newer version? Thanks! MovGP0 _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list Axiom-developer@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
