Most commands in the Student[LinearAlgebra] subpackage consider symbolic quantities to represent real variables. For example, a dot product of Vectors whose entries are symbolic expressions does not use complex conjugates when computing the result. This assumption is specific to the Student[LinearAlgebra] subpackage and does not hold in the main LinearAlgebra package. To allow variables to represent complex-valued quantities, use the package command, SetDefault( conjugate = true ).

All syntaxes, except for the cross product (&x), are available throughout Maple, whether or not the Student[LinearAlgebra] subpackage has been loaded. The definition of the . (dot) operator is, however, different if the Student[LinearAlgebra] subpackage has been loaded, in that it then treats symbolic quantities as being real-valued by default, as discussed earlier.
