Partial fraction expansion
PARTFRAC has a rational fraction as an argument.
PARTFRAC returns the partial fraction decomposition of
this rational fraction.
Example
To perform a partial fraction decomposition of a rational
function, such as:
5
x
------------------------------------------------------------------------ -
4
3
⋅
x
–
2
x
+
you use the PARTFRAC command.
In real and direct mode, this produces:
--------------------- -
x

2 x
In complex mode, this produces:
