I am currently in Kuala Lumpur teaching a Maple course and I'm showing the participants MaplePrimes ... say hi to our Malaysian friends. Salam! T4 from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia!

This page contains a great collection of different Maplets. Many users will be intersted in the Sudoku maplet. There are also some other interesting tools and games there. http://maplenet.msc.uky.edu/maplets/

The site's search often doesn't produce any results even in the cases where Google search gives links to this site on the first two pages. Example - eludom. If that can't be improved, can at least a Google site search (i.e. with site:www.mapleprimes.com) be added as an alternative search option? Alec

First of all there is a problem with the way it saves the fonts. They don't work in all applications. Seccond, the major bug: This is when working with 3D graphs. Maple 10 saves the curves in a graph as a bunch of small lines. The problem is that each of these lines are saved several times, one after the other. Usually there will be 8 identical copies of each line saves, some going the opposite direction, but still the same line. Sometimes it will also consist of lines with no length at the endpoints. This way it can sometimes save a hundred (100) objects, for just one line, where each object is either just the exact same line, or a line with no length at one of the endpoints.

Lambda the Ultimate is a community site for programming languages. The name comes from The Original 'Lambda Papers' by Guy Steele and Gerald Sussman. Yep, that Guy Steele, co-creator of Scheme, then Java, now working on Fortress. Fortress is intended to be a disruptive technology (like Java was), and is squarely aiming at markets that are currently served by Fortran and Matlab.

My daily routine involves a look at what's new in academic Math via the ArXiv (through the convenient Front interface at UC-Davis), and in academic CS via the lesser-known Computing Research Repository. Actually, I use the nice feature both have to have an email (with links) sent to me every weekday with new posts in my areas of interest.

I have a question about this site. Does Mapleprimes keep your postings at the different forums indefinitely ? I would like to have all my collected postings, blogs, etc stored somewhere for possible future reference. Can I rely on mapleprimes to have all my postings collected as part of my records ? Should I start manually collecting all the information I want on my own ? thanks, Dan

And Google strikes again. They now have a Curriculum search that is just perfect for hunting down Maple-related resources. Looks like it needs a littel fine-tuning, but it definitely shows promise!

Hi all, I am new with maple! I want know if maple has the some tools to create a GUI as matlab. Is there a function "patch" as matlab? Regards

Hello If we have an integral of say two functions f(x) & g(x) and we know one function and the solution for the integral. Can we find out the other function using Maple. Could anyone guide me on this. Regards S

p >Hello. I'm still kind of new to the practice of using a computer program to manipulate equations. I knew that one way to define an ellipse is as the locus of points P such that for 2 fixed points F1 and F2 the sum PF1 + PF2 is constant. I also know that in Cartesian coordinates, we get a formula of the form Ax2 + By2 = 1. If we set up our coordinate system such that F1 and F2 are on the x axis each a distance c from the origin and the maximum width of the ellipse is 2a, let's try to figure out A and B using MAPLE.

define(h,'orderless',h(1,2)=3); works as I would expect and h(1,2) and h(2,1) evaluate to 3. define(h,'orderless',h(2,1)=3); gives both h(1,2) and h(2,1) evaluating just to h(1,2). I suspect this is a bug since replacing 1,2 by a,b or by b,a it works as I would expect. Is this (another) fundamental bug or have I misunderstood something? I'd be interested in any comments.
