Hello, I have a question about Mathematical Expression Component in document. I tried to use it in my maple document and of course I looked at the help about it. There is a discription about another component, I think. The reason of it is that the dialog of component property is different in a help and in a document. I do not know why. I try to use it in Maple 10.06. The following figures show the situation. Of course, problem of this component is not only in different property dialog but also in functionality. Figure from help Figure from document Problem with this component is described also in the document here. Thank you. Vladimir

Scientific Computing recently posted their thoughts on the usefulness of scientific calculators. They also had an interview with a representative of Texas Instruments. When the rep was asked the question of "why would I still use a calculator now that computers are so cheap?"

The final explanation, and the only one that Scientific Computing was satisfied with was that for a calculator, "you can take it into an exam, but most exam systems do not allow you to bring a computer in."

For myself, I haven't touched a calculator in quite a while. For simple problems, I will just use Windows Calculator, or Google. And of course, for anything else, I use Maple.

If you want JordanForm to give the matrix Q that Jordanises the Matrix A then the Help pages tell you to use JordanForm(A, output='Q'); Unfortunately this doesn't work inside a procedure that has Q as a local variable: proc(A) local C; JordanForm(A, output='C'); end proc: generates an error on execution. I'm not sure whether this is a bug although it is surely a poor state of affairs. I don't understand why the syntax has been set so that the value of the option is the global name C - is there some possible advantage to it? . Surely it would avoid all such problems if all options and option values (of this sort) were either reserved words or strings. So then the syntax would be

hi there, The "Maple Advanced programing guide" was produced using a special version of Maple that reads and updates latex files, where can I get such a version? ANYONE KNOWS?

Could anyone help me? How to get the set of non-neg-int solution of x+y+z=n?

What are your favorite development tools in Maple?

Hi! I was trying to execute a simple ComboBox maplet in Maple 11, but everytime that I try to make use of, the below message is presented: Execution Stopped: Stack limit reached. Can anyone help me? Thanks, João Paulo Laudares

Hi I am seeking to the analytic solution of the integral int(((alpha^2+mu^6/alpha^4)*E[1]+(alpha+mu^4/alpha^3)*E[2]+(1+mu^2/alpha^2)*E[3]+1/alpha*E[4])*omega/sinh(Pi*omega)*(alpha-a-I*k)^2*exp(-2*I*omega*theta),alpha=-infinity..infinity) where omega:=1/2*(alpha-mu^2/alpha) and other parameters are real constants. Any helping would be appreciated. cheers Sayed

Can we have a format for posting with

- text only
- fixed font
- full ASCII


When posting code it is a real mess in variable fonts, almost unreadable
and quite often it must contain symbols ( like the 'less than') which is
kicked out by the board software - so HTML with the 'pre' command does
not work.

Or let us know how to do it in a posting FAQ ...

Hi everybody, I put on the Book pages of mapleprimes a way to implement functional objects with Maple. I'm deeply interested in your opinion about that... you can find my code here: View 744_indexed-output.mw on MapleNet or Download 744_indexed-output.mw

As you can see, this technique implements quite full and simple functional objects for Maple. It is very simple and efficient. All properties are private, you need to implement public get and set methods to make them public. Public methods and stored in the last table structure of the procedure.

Here is a sheet that shows how to use surface to plot density functions. It shows also how to use such plot for "Value at Risk" figures. See Value at Risk definition at Wikipedia. View 744_plot-fill.mw on MapleNet or Download 744_plot-fill.mw
