method(..., SingleArgumentDispatch => ...) -- method functions with a variable number of arguments

method(..., SingleArgumentDispatch => ...) -- method functions with a variable number of arguments

Synopsis:

Usage: f = method(SingleArgumentDispatch => true)

Input:

Output:

f: a method function that treats several arguments as a single argument, i.e., as a sequence.

Here is an example.

i1 : f = method(SingleArgumentDispatch=>true);

i2 : f ZZ := i -> -i;

i3 : f Sequence := S -> reverse S;

i4 : f 44



o4 = -44

i5 : f(3,4,5,6)



o5 = (6, 5, 4, 3)



o5 : Sequence

Normally, at most three arguments could be handled by such a method function, and the types would have to be considered separately.
