Option variable
negdistrib
Default value: true
When negdistrib
is true
, -1 distributes
over an expression. E.g., -(x + y)
becomes - y - x
. Setting it to false
will allow - (x + y)
to be displayed like that. This is sometimes useful
but be very careful: like the simp
flag, this is one flag you do not
want to set to false
as a matter of course or necessarily for other
than local use in your Maxima.
