Calculate

This table shows operators with one example each for Octave-mode (O-mode) and Maxima-mode (M-mode). Operations are executed according to their precedence (prec), and, if these are equal, in order.

Function O-Mode M-Mode Prec Order
Addition x + y x + y 4 left-right
Subtraction x - y x - y 4 left-right
Scalar Multiplication x .* y x * y 3 left-right
Vector/Matrix Multiplication x * y x . y 3 left-right
Scalar Division x ./ y x / y 3 left-right
Matrix Division (right) x / y - 3 left-right
Matrix Division (left) x \ y - 3 left-right
Scalar Exponentiation
x .^ y
x ^ y
1 left-right
Vector/Matrix Exponentiation
x ^ y
x ^^ y
1 left-right
Range x:y:z - 5 left-right
Assignment x = z x : y 10 right-left
Assignment x += z - 10 right-left
Assignment x -= z - 10 right-left
Assignment x /= z - 10 right-left
Assignment x *= z - 10 right-left
Preincrement ++x ++x 10 left-right
Predecrement --x --x 10 left-right
Postincrement x++ x++ 10 right-left
Postdecrement x-- x-- 10 right-left
Adjunct x' - 1 right-left
Factorial x! - 1 left-right


Comparison and Logical Operators

Function O-Mode M-Mode Prec Order
Less x < y x < y 6 left-right
Less or equal x <= y x <= y 6 left-right
Larger x > y x > y 6 left-right
Larger or equal x >= y x >= y 6 left-right
Equal x == y x == y 6 left-right
Not equal x ~= y x ~= y 6 left-right
And x & y x & y 7 left-right
Or
x  ||  y
x  ||  y
9 left-right
Not ~x ~x 8 left-right
