Hi,

Could I get Mathematica to "simplify" an expression, such as

E^(1 + x) + E^(1 - x)

to 2E*Cosh[x] ?

Thanks!

Sam


Hi, try this:

expr=E^(1+x)+E^(1-x);

expr // FullSimplify

This gives your desired result. This also:

expr /. Plus[Power[E, Plus[a_, Times[-1, x]]], 
   Power[E, Plus[a_, Times[1, x]]]] -> 2 E^a*Cosh[x]

Have fun, Alexei
