Hallo,

k[x_,y_] = x^2+y^2
Thread[k[a+b,c d],Plus]
gives: (a+b)^2+c^2 d^2
I would expect: a^2 + (c d)^2 + b^2 + (c d)^2 (See below)

-----------------
When I use:
Thread[m[a+b, c d],Plus]
gives: m[a, c d] + m[b, c d]
This is what should happen.

What gives "m" a different solution than "k"????

I hoop some of you will answer:-)

greetings
Dick
