Copy the definitions of one symbol to another
ResourceFunction["CopyDefinitions"][f,g] copies the definitions of f into the definitions of g. |
Use the function:
In[1]:= | ![]() |
Out[1]= | ![]() |
Using Set or SetDelayed can achieve similar behavior:
In[4]:= | ![]() |
Out[4]= | ![]() |
However, the new symbol will still be dependent on the old:
In[5]:= | ![]() |
Out[5]= | ![]() |
In[6]:= | ![]() |
Out[6]= | ![]() |
CopyDefinitions will eliminate dependencies on the original:
In[7]:= | ![]() |
Out[7]= | ![]() |
In[8]:= | ![]() |
Out[8]= | ![]() |
In[9]:= | ![]() |
Out[9]= | ![]() |
