Hi,
Is this a known bug, feature? Or I am doing something wrong?
-------------------------------
Mathematica 4.0 for Linux
Copyright 1988-1999 Wolfram Research, Inc.
-- Motif graphics initialized --
In[1]:= PowerExpand[(-1/t)^(3/2) Sqrt[-t]]
1
Out[1]= -
t
---------------------------------
The correct answer is -1/t, of course.
Thanks,
Peter
