Description
|
|
|
•
|
This function checks whether its first argument is a Maple vector. A vector is defined to be an one-dimensional array indexed from 1.
|
|
•
|
If the argument K is given, the function checks whether A is a vector with entries of type K .
|
|
•
|
Also, if K is given, it is essential to quote the word vector in order to avoid confusion with the vector function in the linalg package.
