From #6:

axiom
ex := Gamma(3/2::EXPR INT)
LatexWiki Image(1)
Type: Expression Integer
axiom
ex::EXPR FLOAT
LatexWiki Image(2)
Type: Expression Float
axiom
ex::EXPR FLOAT::FLOAT
Cannot convert from type Expression Float to Float for value _ | (1.5)

mostly fixed in FriCAS? --kratt6, Fri, 28 Dec 2007 16:37:23 -0800 reply
Status: open => fix proposed

it remains to teach axiom algorithms for Gamma & friends with Float (not DoubleFloat) arguments, and that Complex DoubleFloat has SpecialFunctionCategory.

The latter seems to be a bit tricky, unless we do it by special case in Complex, which is ugly.

Status: fix proposed => fixed somewhere
