Dear PARI developers, I have commited an experimental change (39f42a6ce5) That allow to use multivar for loop variables as well: for example, instead of writing foreach(factor(5!)~,pe,my([p,e]=pe);print(p,"^",e)) one can now write foreach(factor(120)~,[p,e],print(p,"^",e)) Or instead of forvec(ab=[3,3],my([a,b]=ab);print([a,b])) forvec([a,b]=[3,3],print([a,b])) or even parforprime(p=2,1000,my(N=2^p-1);[N,ispseudoprime(N)],[N,t],if(t,print(p,":",N))) The drawback is that this is not supported by GP2C and this might be difficult to implement correctly in all case, given the various way iterators are implemented in GP2C. Cheers, Bill
