 Description

EDIT 2023: The correct behaviour is obtained if the line operator is used. Objective of bug fix: Restore this behaviour but without use of line operator.

 

Due to API changes, Assign() is partially broken. It just evaluates it's arguments but is not evaluated itself.

An option might be to integrate the replacement into the pre-processing. This also might work for Solve() (integrate the Maxima function call into preprocessing)!

But maybe, the preprocessing isn't under control of the plugin...

Έλα, τις τελευταίες μέρες ένιωθα λίγο κουρασμένος από τη ρουτίνα και ήθελα κάτι να με διασκεδάσει χωρίς πίεση. Ένας φίλος από παλιά μου έστειλε μήνυμα και μου είπε να δοκιμάσω ένα μέρος που του άρεσε πολύ. goldzino Μετά από μερικές μικρές απώλειες που με απογοήτευσαν αρχικά πήρα μεγαλύτερο ρίσκο σε ένα φρουτάκι με πολύχρωμα διαμάντια και ξαφνικά ήρθε μια σειρά που μου έφερε καλό κέρδος. Είναι ωραίο που για παίκτες από την Ελλάδα υπάρχουν ειδικά μπόνους που κάνουν την εμπειρία πιο ενδιαφέρουσα. Τώρα το ανοίγω τα βράδια όταν θέλω να χαλαρώσω και να τελειώσω τη μέρα με καλύτερη διάθεση.

Welcome everyone! I saw a video from a creator based in Edinburgh who was showing off their winnings on a new platform. I’d been feeling quite unlucky lately and was nearly ready to stop playing for good. I checked out wishwin and spent my afternoon on the slots online. To my surprise, I landed a win that was ten times my initial stake. I also enjoyed the online casino bets poker section. It was a great result that made me feel much better.

The problem can be described more specifically. 

The standard way without tricks. Problem is that the result of Assign() can't be stored to another variable.

 

Version with eval(), storage is possible but eval looks weird at display of L and enforces unwanted conversion to non-exact representation

Version with line-block: This is the best way, because behaviour exactly matches the design intent.
