The convert/array function converts a list, a table, or an array to an array.

When the input object is an array, convert/array will return the object in a dense representation.

Note: The command array has been superseded by Array .

$\mathrm{convert}\left(\left[\left[1\,2\right]\,\left[3\,4\right]\right]\,\mathrm{array}\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}1& 2\\ 3& 4\end{array}\right]$

$A≔\mathrm{linalg}\left[\mathrm{randmatrix}\right]\left(3\,3\,\mathrm{symmetric}\right)$

$A≔\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{-7}& 22& \mathrm{-94}\\ 22& \mathrm{-55}& 87\\ \mathrm{-94}& 87& \mathrm{-56}\end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{lprint}\left(\right)$

array(symmetric,1 .. 3, 1 .. 3,[(1, 2)=22,(2, 3)=87,(1, 3)=-94,(2, 2)=-55,(1, 1)=-7,(3, 3)=-56])

$\mathrm{convert}\left(A\,\mathrm{array}\right)$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{-7}& 22& \mathrm{-94}\\ 22& \mathrm{-55}& 87\\ \mathrm{-94}& 87& \mathrm{-56}\end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{lprint}\left(\right)$

array(1 .. 3, 1 .. 3,[(1, 2)=22,(3, 1)=-94,(2, 3)=87,(1, 3)=-94,(2, 2)=-55,(2, 1)=22,(1, 1)=-7,(3, 3)=-56,(3, 2)=87])
