(num,den) calling style seems to be OK:

--> [a,b]=simp(prod(q.num),prod(q.den))
 a  =

                                    2            3            4
   3.432D-17 +1.230D-16s +3.079D-16s  +5.709D-17s  +3.432D-17s

 b  =

                                    2            3   4
   1.0000004 +61.501079s +59.597296s  +14.304769s  +s

The problem is in %r_simp code, which does a cleaning, but not a complete one. If fact we should have the same result when the cleaning is done afterwards :

--> clean(a/b)
 ans  =


   0
   --

   1

which is OK to me when you see this:

--> w=10^(1:6); abs(horner(a/b,%i*w))
 ans  =

   2.224D-17   3.415D-17   3.432D-17   3.432D-17   3.432D-17 3.432D-17

Hello Frederico,

The problem is in simp() :

---> rlist(prod(a.num),prod(a.den),a.dt)
 ans  =

                                      2            3 4
   3.432D-17 + 1.230D-16s + 3.079D-16s + 5.709D-17s + 3.432D-17s
--------------------------------------------------------------
                                          2            3 4
       1.0000004 + 61.501079s + 59.597296s + 14.304769s + s


---> simp(rlist(prod(a.num),prod(a.den),a.dt))
 ans  =

                                      2            3 4
   3.432D-17 + 1.230D-16s + 3.079D-16s + 5.709D-17s + 3.432D-17s

Dear all,

Look at this code (the coefficients are actually the result of pevious calculations):

NUM = [5.858D-09 + 2.011D-08*%s + 4.884D-08*%s^2 ...
5.858D-09 + 8.796D-10*%s + 7.028D-10*%s^2]
DEN = [0.1199597 + 7.2765093*%s + %s^2 ...
       8.336136 + 7.0282601*%s + %s^2]
q = NUM./DEN

Running it yields

   5.858D-09 +2.011D-08s +4.884D-08s²  5.858D-09 +8.796D-10s +7.028D-10s²
   ---------------------------------- ----------------------------------
       0.1199597 +7.2765093s +s²            8.336136 +7.0282601s +s²

This is, correctly, a two-component rational vector with the expected numerators and denominators.

Now let's evaluate

q = prod(NUM./DEN)

The prod documantation sys that the argument may be "an array of reals, complex, booleans, polynomials or rational fractions". It should provide the rational obtained by multiplying the twonumrators and the two denominators. However, we get

   3.432D-17 +1.230D-16s +3.079D-16s² +5.709D-17s³ +3.432D-17s⁴
   ------------------------------------------------------------
                                1

The numeratoris right, but the expected denominator has been just replaced by 1

However, rewriting the command as

prod(NUM)/prod(DEN)

we get the expected result:

   3.432D-17 +1.230D-16s +3.079D-16s² +5.709D-17s³ +3.432D-17s⁴
   ------------------------------------------------------------
       1.0000004 +61.501079s +59.597296s² +14.304769s³ +s⁴

This is quite strange!

Now we repeat with simpler polynomials:

NUM = [1-%s 2-%s]
DEN = [1+%s 2+%s]
q = NUM./DEN

We get

   1 -s  2 -s
   ----  ----
   1 +s  2 +s

Now evaluate

prod(NUM./DEN)

The result is the expected one!

   2 -3s +s²
   ---------
   2 +3s +s²

The behavior seems to depend on the type of polynomials.

Is this a bug or there is something I'm not interpreting correctly?

Regards,

Federico Miyara
