Topic: Implicit parameters in (Continuous)LinearMap.id


Niels Voss (Aug 27 2025 at 22:03):

I noticed that LinearMap.id has two explicit parameters while ContinuousLinearMap.id has all implicit parameters. Is there a reason for this difference?

Eric Wieser (Aug 27 2025 at 22:07):

docs#LinearMap.id does not have any explicit parameters.

Niels Voss (Aug 27 2025 at 22:07):

Sorry, I meant it the other way around. docs#ContinuousLinearMap.id has explicit parameters

Eric Wieser (Aug 27 2025 at 22:11):

I think docs#LinearMap.id is the odd one out here, docs#AlgHom.id and docs#AffineMap.id both also take explicit arguments.
