## formatting the output generated by writeto(filenam...

I capture the output of dsolve after setting infolevel to some file so I can later read that output and put it in my own document (Latex).

Currently what I do is set infolevel, then use writeto(file_name) to send all the output that would normally go to standard output to the text file, then later do readline to read it back for further processing.

The problem is that Maple does not put the output in the file the same way as it appears on the screen when using worksheet.

For example, all newlines are lost. So everything comes out in one line in the file_name .  I am not sure why that is.

Is there an option or trick to make the output not lose the newlines? It also seems to format things differently in the file. An example will make this clear

When running this code

restart;
currentdir("... set the directory to where you want to save the file to ..");

infolevel[:-dsolve]:=5;
writeto("output_of_dsolve.txt");  #send all output to file
sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=sin(x),y(x));
close("output_of_dsolve.txt"):
writeto(terminal); #to send output back to terminal



When I open the file output_of_dsolve.txt this is what shows

Methods for first order ODEs:--- Trying classification methods ---trying a quadrature<- quadrature successful     solAssignyApplyFunction(x)equalsuminus0cosApplyFunction(x) + _C1, [

Typesetting:-mprintslash([sol := y(x) = -cos(x) + _C1],

[y(x) = -cos(x) + _C1])]



But in the worksheet, when I run the same code without writeto("output_of_dsolve.txt");  so output goes to terminal as normal, here it is how it looks like

Is there a way to keep the newlines? And why there is some extra stuff in the file that do not show on the screen? Should one change the Settings for Display before doing the above? Currently the default I have is typesetting level is "Extended". Do not know if this affects it or not.

Is the above method the only way to capture the output of dsolve from infolevel to a text file? It looks like Maple uses  in the file in place where there should be a newline (CR) inserted.

Update

I did this experiment but there is still some strange formatting coming out in the file. Here is an example

restart;

currentdir(".....");

:-infolevel[:-dsolve]:=5;
writeto("output_of_dsolve.txt");
sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=sin(x),y(x));
close("output_of_dsolve.txt"):
writeto(terminal);


And now the text file has this

Methods for first order ODEs:--- Trying classification methods ---trying a quadrature<- quadrature successfulTypesetting:-mprintslash([(sol := y(x) = -cos(x)+_C1)],[y(x) = -cos(x)+_C1])

What is Typesetting:-mprintslash at the end of the line above? it is duplicate.

And how to get rid of it? Is there another settings to set other than interface(typesetting=standard): and interface(prettyprint=0): ?

## How do I only plot certain points from a list?...

I have a set of points. I only want to plot ones with x and y less that 5 units from [0,0]. I can do it with for do loop. Can't get it to work with seq. Ideally I don't want to create another list.

## How to switch off the Autosaving in Maple 2021?...

I have been unsuccessfully switching off the autosaving from Maple 2021. There is no "Options Dialog - General Tab". Please help me. Thank you!

## Why does this integral evaluate as "undefined"?...

int( exp(-2*r)*cos(theta)^3*r^2*sin(theta), phi=0..2*Pi, theta=0..Pi, r=0..infinity);
undefined

This integral with cos(theta) to an odd power should evaluate to zero, as found in Maple 17 [moderator: and up to Maple 2015.2] but not the most recent versions.

I don't know how to generate  some graphs with dynamically modified layouts at once

## invalid latex for empty matrix...

Maple uses \begin{array}...\end{array} for the latex of a Matrix, which is all good. But for an empty matrix, it does not generate the column specification c or and so the latex when compiled gives an error. Here is an example

W:=Matrix([[]]);
latex(W)

#which gives

\left[\begin{array}{}
{}
\end{array}\right]


Compare to

W:=Matrix([[1]]);
latex(W)

#gives

\left[\begin{array}{c}
1
\end{array}\right]


Because the c is missing in the first example, this generates an error

Adding the c fixes the Latex.

This came up with my code generated an empty  matrix from some computation.

May be this could be corrected for future version of Maple?

## Finding operands and operating on multiple operand...

Hello Maple gurus!

I have two questions related to working with operands:

Question 1

I often find myself in a situation where I have a non-trivial expression for instance containing double integrals with complex exponentials, and want to perform some operation on a heavily nested operand like the exponent to a specific exponential inside the double integral. Usually what I do is use a list argument with the op() or subsop() to operate on the nested operator by finding specific operand numbers.

However, the problem with this is that I am hard-coding the operand number(s) for the operator, and this expression can be located in the middle of a large worksheet. If something above these op() or subop() calls changes and the changes trickle down, the operands might change number and the commands are no longer valid.

Does Maple have any commands that will let me 'find' an operand like one does in by-hand calculations? For example, there might be an exponent nested in a double integral that has 'a*b' in it. What I want is to operate on the operand containing 'a*b' rather than specifying the actual operand number. Is there anything like this?

Question 2

Somewhat related to the above, I sometimes want to do a single function on multiple operands. I tried applyop but that seems to apply a function to each operand individually. What if, for example, I want to run combine() on 2 specific operands, assuming these operands are heavily nested, to combine just those two operands.

Thank you!

## Exception from Latex may be due to typesetting...

When I convert Maple expression to Latex, before calling Latex, I replace some math names by strings in order to keep them as is in the generated Latex instead of using Maple own shortened name when conversion to latex().

Later on, in the Latex file, I add \DeclareMathOperator on each long name. This way the long math names remain and it is more clear.

This has been working well for years. Same code. No problems. All my Latex was generated this way.

Except just now, I hit a case where Maple's latex() gives an error when the math has WeierstrassP in it. latex() generates exception.

I will email this also to Maplesoft. But thought to also post it here in case someone can see what the problem is.

## exception using solve. How to catch when using ass...

I am getting an exception divide by zero using solve. The problem is that when using kernelopts('assertlevel'=2):  I am no longer able to catch the exception in a catch try.

Removing kernelopts('assertlevel'=2):  I can catch the exception.

But I need to use kernelopts('assertlevel'=2): in my program.

Is there a way to keep kernelopts('assertlevel'=2): and still catch exception thrown by solve?

Is this a bug in solve? And why using kernelopts('assertlevel'=2): prevents catching the exception?

Using Maple 2021.2 on windows 10. Worksheet attached.

## Simple isolate fails...

Hello, can someone explain why something like this fails? The help page for 'isolate' says the second argument can be 'any algebraic expression'. Thanks.

## Simplify with Side Relations and then eval...

I simplified a vector column using side relations. Then I wanted to evaluate using

eval( equation,  [x1=3,  x2=5......})

But side relations uses the reverse order i.e. after evaluation

[3=x1, 5=x2......]

So then the internals of the list need to be swaped tto work with eval.That is easy. I am just wondering is there a neater way to achieve this?

## is it possible to read Maple differential equation...

I was wondering if it is possible to write Maple code in 2D notation inside .mpl and have it converted automatically to standard Maple 1D math.

For example, suppose I have A.mpl file with the content


#--- this is inside A.mpl file

ode:=y''(x)+y'(x)=sin(x);
ic:=y(0)=1,y'(0)=0;
dsolve([ode,ic],y(x));
`

Right now, reading this file in worksheet or even in document mode gives error:

Error, on line 1, syntax error, unexpected single forward quote:
ode:=y''(x)+y'(x)=sin(x);

But in document mode, one can type this in, and Maple will accept it.

Since I do not use document mode and most of my code is in mpl files, I was wondering if one can write y'(x) instead of diff(y(x),x) and have maple automatically convert the code as it reads it somehow?

I find it much easier and more natural to write   y''(0)=1  than (D@@2)(y)(0)=1  for example.

I do understand the technical problems parsing this as has special meaning in Maple. But Maple does handle this input OK if typed in by hand in document 2D mode. It just needs to extend this to reading it from mpl files.

May be a future release of Maple will support this (using some switches or option when reading the file?)

## Install Maple 2021 on Linux Fedora...

My OS is Linux/Fedora 35.

Without knowing that Feodra is sadly no more officially supported (it used to be the case a few years ago as I was using it on Fedora) I purchased a standalone license of Maple 2021 and  downloaded the Linux installer but am unable to run the file

Maple2021.2LinuxX64Installer.run

from command line (typing

% sh ./Maple2021.2LinuxX64Installer.run

produces the error "can't execute a binary file") or by clicking on it ("no software installed to run this file").

Before returning the product, I looked at this page to find a possible workaround:

https://faq.maplesoft.com/s/article/Maple-is-not-activating-on-64-bit-Linux?language=en_US

where some tips to install Maple on non-officially supported Linux  os.

I installed lsb packages so that typing:

lsb_relase -a

outputs
