Feature Request: Function Panel

[Derek O'Connor]

In the function panel please tell what and how the arguments are
supplied. For example, I have just spent 10 mins trying unsuccessfully
to use binompmf which gives an error for binompmf(0.4;4;10), and other
variations I have tried.

By the way, Matlab has a similar annoying feature.

SUGGESTION: When I double click on a function name show the function
on the command line with default arguments, or better still, with
explanatory arguments.

It is a pity to see such a good calculator marred by such small
details.

[Davide Lasagna]

I agree with Derek's suggestion. I may be easier and more good looking to show in the function dock widget a small text edit widget on the bottom, which display usage and properties of the selected function.

My 2 cents

Hi Derek,
