Collapse

Function: collapse (<expr>) Collapses <expr> by causing all of its common (i.e., equal) subexpressions to share (i.e., use the same cells), thereby saving space. (collapse is a subroutine used by the optimize command.) Thus, calling collapse may be useful after loading in a save file. You can collapse several expressions together by using collapse ([<expr_1>, ..., <expr_n>]). Similarly, you can collapse the elements of the array A by doing collapse (listarray (A)).
