switches between symbolic/numeric mode

Syntax

symb = symbolic(obj)

symbolic(obj, symb)

Description

symb = symbolic(obj) returns true if symbolic calculation mode is on, false for numeric mode.

symbolic(obj, symb) sets whether the calculations are in symbolic/numeric (true/false) mode. Switching to symbolic mode, the spin values, matrix elements, magnetic field, magnetic structure and physical units are converted into symbolic variables. If this is not desired, start with a symbolic mode from the beggining and have full control over the values of the above mentioned variables.
