Thanks, that is a very simple way.
But suppose I want to extend that NonCommutativeMultiply operator (**) to
others operations: +, -, / . Does anybody have a clue how to do this ?
Suppose I have the expression for the roots of the quadratic equation: -
b[[a]]^2 + Sqrt[delta]/2*a[[j]]
How can I see at once all the numeric values unevaluated on that expression.
In short words, I have lenghtly expressions(with sums,subtraction,divisions
and multiplications and powers) and I want to check each numeric value of
each term in the original unevaluated formula.
I was thinking in a operator or function to solve all this issue.
Any help is very welcome,
Thanks,
Alex
