What happened to simple function?

[cookiemnstr510510]

Hello All,
I have a question regarding the simple function in MATLAB.
My textbook talks about it and it looks very useful, it will show you a bunch of steps of how to simplify an expression or equation.
I am using MATLAB R2018b and it looks like the function is gone. I am wondering if something took its place? it looks super useful.
Thanks so much

The "simple" function was replaced by "simplify".

Hmmm. When I type simplify it only shows me the simplest answer, versus in my textbook when you type simple it shows a ton of different answers, going through each possible way to simplify it until you get to the "simplest" one.

I think "simple" was removed after R2014b. Here is the documentation for "simplify":
