Now, disable the function definition



f(x) vectorized will get stuck.

Not a bug, very many different calculated results are stored.
That is very handy ... example: images
The "rainbow ColorMap Electron" is there as you open the work sheet.

I think Radovan just wanted to indicate a malfunction when the function is disabled and the subsequent vectorization on the function goes into an infinite loop.
I think he was expecting a non-evaluation (I was expecting it too)

It does not go into an infinite loop.
Once assigned, result of vector/matrix is resident as an identity to the project.
No matter if disabled afterwards, calculated and stored.
This feature is one of my preferred vs Mathcad.

Hello

I did not think about this. That's why I decided to delete my previous message. With righteous excuses.

In MathCAD there are possibilities to solve some equations or systems of equations where vectorizing of functions can be applied.

Essentially, Smath vectorize operator works same as Mathcad [11 and earlier].
However, there are some nuance as Smath is not a clone of Mathcad.
Vectorizing an image over a function is gorgeous [grayscale, RGB] ...
... but there is an exception ... Explain:
Smath vectorizes a matrix over a scalar function.
linter, cinter, ainterp are NOT scalar functions.
You must then make them fake scalar via if/otherwise, exemplified in
Contour Solve [user ColorMap].

I'll have to get back to my first post



Function f(x) was not defined. What is going on then? Why the calculation did not stop with an error issued? If you wait enough it can crash SMath. I reproduced that on few computers and suspect this might be a bug or a problem. That was my question.

For sure, if you wait too long before [Shift+Esc] it will crash Smath,
because it enters an infinite loop. That answers your question ! bug !
When entering an infinite loop there should be an error message/stop calculate.

Caution: if you figure you have entered an infinite loop stop,stop,stop ...
it will crash Smath and zap the document "root element missing" => 0kB
All that from true story !

You can generalize your attempt by defining algorithm style.
