maxima maxima_partfrac


Function: partfrac (expr, var)
  • Expands the expression expr in partial fractions.
Example:
    (%i) partfrac(1/(s*(s-1)^2), s);
    (%o) 1/s-1/(s-1)+1/(s-1)^2

    (%i) partfrac(1/((s+2)^2*(s+3)), s);
    (%o)1/(s+3)-1/(s+2)+1/(s+2)^2

    (%i) partfrac(1/(s*((s+2)^2+1)), s);
    (%o)1/(5*s)-(s+4)/(5*(s^2+4*s+5))
