QUESTION

Maxima Special symbol

Calling Sequence

?

Description

As prefix to a function or variable name, ? signifies that the name is a Lisp name, not a Maxima name. For example, ?round signifies the Lisp function ROUND. See Lisp and Maxima for more on this point.

The notation ? word (a question mark followed a word, separated by whitespace) is equivalent to describe("word"). The question mark must occur at the beginning of an input line; otherwise it is not recognized as a request for documentation.
