This is similar to member except that it accepts an arbitrary Object and does not throw a MapleException.

class Example
{
public static void main( String notused[] ) throws MapleException
String[] mapleArgs = { "java" };
Engine engine = new Engine( mapleArgs, new EngineCallBacksDefault(), null, null );
List s = (List)engine.evaluate( "[2,5,sin(x),1+2*x+x^2,7.5];" );
System.out.println( "Is 2 in the list: " + ind.contains( engine.newNumeric( 2 ) ) );
System.out.println( "Is 7 in the list: " + ind.contains( engine.newNumeric( 7 ) ) );
}
Executing this code produces the following output:
Is 2 in the list: true
Is 3 in the list: false
