             Open/Closed: Open
                 Release: tla from may 2004
         Reproducibility: None
           Fixed Release: 
           Error message:    >> Error detected within library code:
   not a kernel
Example of code trigerring the bug: f==n+->product(sum(1/i,i=1..j),j=1..n)
f(1)

f==n+->product(product(1/i,i=1..j),j=1..n)
f(1)

f==n+->sum(sum(1/i,i=1..j),j=1..n)
f(1)
          Internal cause: it might be that the problem is in iidprod in
combfunc.spad: if I understand correctly, its last line 

 */[eval(first l,k::K,i::F) for i in r1::Z .. r2::Z]

evaluates product's first argument for each value of the product variable and
then multiplies the resulting list together. However, for some reason the eval
fails. I was unable to find out why eval fails. A hint might be that the
operation "summation" is not called anymore. I don't even know which
operation "eval" is called...

Same thing for iidsum.

    _______________________________________________________


it seems that products and sums cannot be nested. However, the following
works:

 g:=operator 'g
 f==n+->sum(g(j),j=1..n)
 f(1)
