Argh. How about having this in English?

i don't see any obvious way to edit the article. There are plenty of blue links going to encyclopaedic descriptions of the prior knowledge you need. If you don't know what a function is, or you don't know that a function maps from a domain to a codomain, then it'll be difficult to understand the idea of a pointwise product of two functions. There is also an example with f(x) = 2x and g(x) = x + 1. It's difficult to get more introductory than that.
The article looks OK to me in it's present 09:34, 26 October 2010 (UTC) state. Maybe someone could add a reference, although mathematical Wikipedia articles tend to get consensus by their internal logic and by using standard terminology, IMHO. Boud (talk) 09:34, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's mysterious how such a simple concept became stretched out into this. If I didn't know better and read this article, I would have thought pointwise products where some high level complicated scholarly topic. 24.85.161.72 (talk) 06:53, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
