Topic: Use of '^'

Hi,
  Any chance that the carat '^' cab be discarded ?
ie x3 + 5x2 - 6x +7

Try :
48x^22 + 32x^20 + 81.12x^18 - 252.64x^14 - 149.1428x^13 + 125.76x^12 - 99.4285x^11 - 56.6228x^9 + 442.12x^5 + 114x^4 - 220.08x^3 + 76x^2 - 149.34

as opposed to this :

48x22 + 32x20 + 81.12x18 - 252.64x14 - 149.1428x13 + 125.76x12 - 99.4285x11 - 56.6228x9 + 442.12x5 + 114x4 - 220.08x3 + 76x2 - 149.34

I don't think anyone would have problems reading the 2nd form.

Excellent program

Re: Use of '^'

I have no plan to change that. I don't see a problem with the caret symbol and it is a common way to show exponentiation. Another thing is that you can actually create a constant named x3, so changing it would break compatibility.
