Yesterday I posted few screenshots of Maple 10. Here I am adding few different cmaple looks in Windows.    

It would be good to have User Attachment Control Panel (as in phpBB) where I could look at my attached files, delete them if necessary, replace, and add files. Especially because the quota is not that big.

Here are some screenshots of Functioning Maple V R1 DOS demo (circ. 1991).

Recently I was asked in a private email about the fastest way of calculating of binomial coefficients mod 2 in Maple. It shouldn't be a problem for anybody reading my assembly dll creation manual. Anyway, here is the assembly code,

With Maple being able to access dll functions, it is easy to produce a function giving the epoch from the date and time. I give an example here for doing that with Open Watcom compiler included in Maple's distribution for Windows.

I have this recurring editor issue where the cursor advances to the next line after entering an assignment operator (:=) or a type definition operator (::). I'm guessing the Maple code implementation is attempting some sort of code formatting and wants to advance the cursor one space beyond the operator. The only problem is that the space doesn't exist, so the cursor is ultimately advanced to the existing token in the buffer stream which in my case is a line feed; i.e., the next line.

The editor appears to be in 'Insert' mode since I can't overwrite characters while the cursor is positioned in the middle of a string.

It is quite frustrating how slow map or zip acts over rtables (examples below). I find it quite useful to write a separate procedure and use the new compiler abilities in Maple 10.

So you have a Maple accessible through the web (like on this site). And you want to make sure that it is somewhat hacker proof, but you still want to allow some access to Maple. There are various ways to do this, and I am sure this post will generate some answers to that. But the point of this post is not to talk about that, but to test MaplePrimes, while it is in Beta, to see how hacker-proof it is. So let's test it (first is the input in <code> and then the same in <maple>):
ssystem("tail /etc/passwd") ssystem("tail /etc/passwd") 3+2 3+2 ssystem("ls") ssystem("ls")

Dear all, I'm frustrated by some ODE problems. sorry the form is a little bit complex: solution := dsolve([diff(s(t),t) = A - A * rho^((1 - r^(theta * t)) * x) - v, diff(f(t),t)=((c - s(t)) / l) * m + x, diff(h(t),t) = x, f(0) = 0, s(0) = 0, h(0) = 0], numeric); for this problem no closed-form, only numerical solution can be found. I have following questions: (1) why cannot I evaluate the value of f(t) at t=5 by using f(5)? (2) For each fixed x, there are curves s(t), f(t), and h(t). Given s(tau) = c, I want to find f(tau)=?. How can I do that? Do I need to find tau first, then find f(tau)? How?

Attached (sim.mpl) is a simple game simulation with data from last years World Series champion Red Sox. Bump up infolevel to see what's going on during a game (as shown below). In the "Maple Baseball" post I wanted to see if the number of runs our team was scoring was appropriate. Obviously, the rule of thumb, 3-hits = 1 run is poor at best. What I really want to find out is if there is a way to improve our scoring chances. The standard baseball batting-order uses the following heuristic:

• lead off with someone with a high on-base percentage (and who can maybe steal a base)
• next 2 are good contact hitters
• batter 4 is your "clean-up" hitter; someone with power
• etc.

f:=sin(t)*x*(1-x);
g:=cos(t)*x*(1-x);
plots[animate](plot,[[f,g],x=0..1],t=0..2*Pi);

This blog entry was created essentially for a possibility to post pictures in comments (where attachments are not allowed.)

OK, in posting a new blog, there is an "Attachment" section... So I could add the three GIFs. They don't show up in the preview, but they did come out when I actually posted...

As moderator of the How Do I?? (Newbies) forum, I thought I would post some information for my viewers. As a somewhat "Newbie" to Maple myself, I thought I'd boast about how amazing I think Maple 10 is (and no... this is not just because I work for Maplesoft ;). My first experience using Maple was a year ago, when I started with Maple 9.5. As expected, like any scientific software, there was a learning curve that I had to conquer.

Wen-Xiu Ma recently asked in the maple-assist group,

How to color the following region?
a:=plot([t^2,t^3-1,t=-3..3):
b:=plot([t^3+1,t^2-3,t=-3..3):
c:=plot([t^2+2,t^5-4,t=-3..3):
display([a,b,c],view=[0..5,-3.5..11]);

Early this season, after the Maplesoft team came out on the wrong side of a 13-6 loss, we were frustrated by the team's inability to score more runs. The previous year we averaged 14 runs a game. This started me wondering, just how many runs can our team expect with a given lineup? Suppose you assume that it takes three hits in an inning to start scoring runs. Now, let's assume you have five .500 hitters coming up to bat. What is the probability that you'll get 3 hits among those five batters, thus scoring one run?
