I have a problem settin up "ctensor".
generally, we first load...
load(ctensor);
the output is "done". this is fine.
but next is...
csetup();
gives nothing, no output but gets to the next line (no input signe either).
so I type
csetup();
again, then I would get...
----------------------------------------
(%i2) csetup();
csetup();
(*) \verb| Enter the dimension of the coordinate system:|\linebreak[0]
Type KILL(ALL); and then TENSORKILL:TRUE;
before you enter a new metric.
#0: csetup()(ctensor.mac line 208)
#1: readvalue(message=Enter the dimension of the coordinate system:,pred=lambda([v],if integerp(v) then block([u:v],mode_declare(u,fixnum),if u > 0 then true)),badboy=["Must be a positive integer!"])
#2: csetup()(ctensor.mac line 213)
-- an error. To debug this try debugmode(true);
(%i3)
----------------------------------------
well, I have tried as instructed.
kill(all);
tensorkill(true);
and
load(ctensor);
again. but nothing has been improved.
it says about "debugmode" but I am not sure how to use it.
Could someone help me on this problem.
