share -- create a unique data representation

Introduction

share() creates a unique data representation for every MuPAD object. This function serves a highly technical purpose. Usually, there should be no need for a user to call this function.

Call(s)

share()

Returns

the void object of type DOM_NULL.

Related Functions

Example 1

The following example was carried out in a fresh MuPAD session. One sees that share reduces the number of logical bytes. However, one observes that the kernel needs some extra physical memory for executing the share call. The output of the example will differ on different machines:

>> int(x, x): bytes()
                             1980600, 2191872, 2147483647
>> share(): bytes() 
                             1201076, 2830848, 2147483647
