I want ot add an annotation to a plot using the drawing facility. Then I export the plot. My problem is that I cannot increase the viewport of the plot without also increasing the size of the plot. For example the code:

produces this plot:

I have constrained the plot and used the size option which together have the side effect of giving me more horizontal space. But this is a wretched hack! I want to size the viewport of the plot so I can write on it.

For sqrt(-1), Maple returns I. Why not -I? I understand why in general Maple does not, and should not, return both signs, because sqrt is defined with a branch cut - specifically out along the negative real axis:

FunctionAdvisor(branch_cuts,sqrt(s));

But as +I and -I lie symmetrically around the branch cut, I do not understand why +I should be chosen in favor of -I. Neither the square of +I or of -I crosses the branch cut, which is,  I guess, the standard way to select a unique value, although both squares end up on the branch cut itself - the latter fact leading to the following more general consideration:

I do not understand why the square root of any negative real number (the above being just a specific case) should at all be assigned any meaning when lying as they do on the branch cut itself. I think it would be more sensible if Maple raised an error, telling you that the branch cut needs to be changed/moved if any value is to be assigned. Which leads me to the following question:

Can the branch cut of the logarithm, and thus of sqrt as well, be changed/moved? I would like it to lie out along the negative imaginary axis.

Hello!

When I use simplify((t-1)/(-1+2*t)) it returns the same thing I entered, how come Maple doesn't return the actual simplified version that is (1/2)-(1/(2*(2*t-1))), even when using expand, it doesn't return anything really that good.

Do anyone know a good idea to get the desired result via Maple? Thank you. 

I am stumped with this trivial puzzle.  Let
z := arctan(x/sqrt(a^2-x^2));
                    
How do we simplify z to.

I tried all sorts of tricks with simplify(...) and convert(...), with assumptions, but did not get anywhere.  Any clues?

Versions: Maple 2016 and 2017.

I was trying to answer a question by torabi 25, August 14, 2017 to speed up his calculations. I got this idea of converting the original code to a procedure - that was not easy, run the procedure and obtain a value of time() to establish a baseline, and making sure the answer from the procedure was the same as from torabi 25. So far so good. Then I would compile the procedure, execute it, and get another value for time(). Hopefully the compiled procedure will be faster than the uncompiled procedure. I am close, but - please see if you can fix my compiler error. Thanks!

Is there a routine available to derive the variable (i.e for any given z) for the standard normal loss function, L(z)?

If we know the value of L(z), how can z be determined?

There seems to be a bug with improper integration:

gives

Substituting any number for x, or assuming x >= 0  (or x<=0) does give the correct result,

The problem also persists when assuming x>-1 (or x>-Maple_floats(MIN_FLOAT))

Can any one state the uses of mathcontainer?

1. It can store only one algebraic expression at a time?

2. Can it handle list of algebraic expressions?

3. Can it store list data points (x,y) for a list of curves?

4. Can there be any use for click to edit this component?

More than a simple Yes or No a simple example for each yes answer would be very helpful.

I enclose a document with list of coordinates for for three curves, expression for curve fitting, three expressions derived for these plot points (coordinates), a command for optimum y for each of the three curves (maximum y and corresponding x value), 

Thanks for answering.

Hey there. 

I recently had to install maple 2017, because the licensens for 2016 had expired. 

And in the new version, whenever i want to copy a matrix from a result, it gives me an _rtable, and a number. The result is the same, but it makes it harder to read and i am not able to edit values in this copied matrix. 

How do i change this?

I have an two arrays of elements Op1[i,j] with -5 <= i,j <= 5 and Op2[i,j] with 5<=i,j<= 35 . When I use surfdata like

surfdata({0p1,Op2})

it produces a plot with both the range of Op1 and Op2 between 0 and 1 (see Fig1).

I tried surfdata({0p1,Op2},-5..35,-5..35) but this only gave the range of the figure from -5 to 35, -5 to 35 but with both plots scaled so that they cover the whole range(see Fig2).

How do i make surfdata use different ranges on the same plot for both arrays?

Please can someone help with maple comand to obtain Jacobian elliptic functions particularly in code editing region?

I have an excel data file where data are in floating points of different decimals. I have made the following command which worked once. Second time it gives an error stating that one argumnet is expected, but receives three. How do I solve this problem. I want the data to be imported to data table in two decimal formats.

M1 := Import(evalf[2]("E:/A_PhD2017/Export_TO_Maple1.xlsx", "Sheet1", "A2:U8"));

Is it possible to compare two maple files, given that there are small changes between them?

in the steps below, it is not fluent to do, and appear diff(1,t)

KineticEnergy := 1/2*m*diff(x(t), t)^2;
PotentialEnergy := subs(x=x(t),int((1/R^2)^2,x));
Action := KineticEnergy - PotentialEnergy;
AA := diff(Action,x(t)) - diff(diff(Action, diff(x(t),t)),t) = 0 <-------- Dsolve this
AA := eval(subs(diff(1,t)=0,diff(Action,x(t))) - Diff(subs(p=Diff(x(t),t),diff(subs(Diff(x(t),t)=p, Action), p)),t)) = 0
dsolve(AA, x(t));
 

Where R is constant

The following image shows a .mw file on two monitors (1 = right side) (2 = left side).  

Distortion occurs when I try to drag-and-drop an open file from monitor 1 to monitor 2.  Transfer from one monitor to another works fine on all other applications (.pdf, .docx, web stuff, graphic files like .png, and .xlsx.  Only .mw files distort when I try to open them or move them to monitor 2.  I was able to move, open, etc. any .mw file for over a year, then a couple of days ago the files started to distort.  I had a 32-bit version of Maple (Maple 2015.2 build ID 1097895—deleted it.  Also deleted and reinstalled Maple 2015.0, build 1022128.  I checked and updated my video card, updated the 2-monitor settings on Windows 7.  All this to no avail, the Maple 2015.0 program works on monitor 1, but it can not be opened or dragged-and-dropped to monitor 2.

Help, advice, suggestions welcomed—many thanks in advance.
