Very good!
Finally something I can use in my minimal surfaces work.
I find that with really complex expressions
ComplexExpand and Simplify
can get "lost" ...
I had one the other day that used all my memory...
I gave the Kernal more, it used it, and still crashed...
I was doing an implicit surfaces derivation...
I can give you the formulas if you like , but it was an Expand
that got lost this time.
Anyone have a way around run away memory use?
