List.select

return an element stored within a list

 

Calling Sequence

Parameters

Description

Examples

Calling Sequence

Algebraic select( int i ) throws MapleException

Parameters

i

-

index of the entry to return

Description

• 

The select function returns the Algebraic object stored in index i of the List.

• 

Valid values of i are 1..n where n is the length of the list.  The length can be obtained by calling numElements.

• 

This is identical to get except that its index is one-based and it throws a MapleException.

Examples

import com.maplesoft.openmaple.*;

import com.maplesoft.externalcall.MapleException;

class Example

{

    public static void main( String notused[] ) throws MapleException

    {

        String[] mapleArgs = { "java" };

        Engine engine = new Engine( mapleArgs, new EngineCallBacksDefault(), null, null );

        List l;

        int i;

        l = (List)engine.evaluate( "[seq( (2^(i)), i=1..10 )]:" );

        for ( i = 1; i <= 10; i++ )

        {

            System.out.println( l.select(i) );

        }

        try

        {

            l.select(11);

        }

        catch ( MapleException me )

        {

            System.out.println( me.getMessage() );

        }

        try

        {

            l.select(0);

        }

        catch ( MapleException me )

        {

            System.out.println( me.getMessage() );

        }

    }

}
