RTableIndFn

retrieve an indexing function code in external code

RTableIndFnArgs

retrieve arguments for an indexing function code in external code

 Calling Sequence RTableIndFn(kv, rt, i) RTableIndFnArgs(kv, rt, i)

Parameters

 kv - kernel handle returned by StartMaple rt - Maple rtable object i - ith indexing function in an rtable

Description

 • These functions are part of the OpenMaple interface to Microsoft Visual Basic.
 • The RTableIndFn function returns the RTABLE_INDEX_* code denoting the kind of indexing function used by the rtable rt.  Since rtables can have more than one indexing function, the parameter i specifies which index function to examine.  Use MapleNumArgs on the RTableSettings indexing_functions field to determine the number of indexing functions an rtable has.  Typically an rtable has no indexing functions.
 • Some indexing functions have extra data associated with them.  For example band is usually denoted band[p1,p2] where p1 and p2 are the number of diagonals above and below the main diagonal.  These extra arguments can be retrieved using RTableIndFnArgs.
