Hello:
I can't seem to use invert() to invert a matrix:

This is a development version of Maxima. The function

(%i1) A : matrix([1, 0], [0, 1])
;
[ 1 0 ]
(%o1) [ ]
[ 0 1 ]
(%i2) invert(A);
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
Error in MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a callee]: The
function $ADJOINT is undefined.
Automatically continuing.
To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to
nil.
(%i3) A^^-1;
[ 1 0 ]
(%o3) [ ]
[ 0 1 ]
~~~~~~
Any ideas about how I can fix this? Weird that the
^^-1 operator works, but the invert() function does
not. I thought one was just an alias for the other.
Thanks,
Dan
