Package: wxmaxima
Version: 22.12.0-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
In wxmaxima, when I try to use assoc_legendre_p() function from the
orthopoly package, I get the following error (below is copy-and-pase from
the wxmaxima window):
(%i1) assoc_legendre_p(l,m,cos(theta))*exp(%i*m*phi);
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
Condition in FORMAT [or a callee]: INTERNAL-SIMPLE-TYPE-ERROR:
"assoc_legendre_p(l,m,cos(theta))" is not of type LIST:
Automatically continuing.
To enable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil.
On the other hand, if I just run maxima from a terminal, there is no
error (below is copy-and-paste from the terminal window):
% maxima
Maxima 5.46.0 https://maxima.sourceforge.io
using Lisp GNU Common Lisp (GCL) GCL 2.6.14 git tag Version_2_6_15pre3
Distributed under the GNU Public License. See the file COPYING.
Dedicated to the memory of William Schelter.
The function bug_report() provides bug reporting information.
(%i1) assoc_legendre_p(l,m,cos(theta))*exp(%i*m*phi);
m %i m phi
(%o1) P (cos(theta)) %e
l
(%i2)
That is why I am reporting this as wxmaxima bug, and not maxima bug.
With best regards,
Stanislav
