Hi everyone!

I'm solving an equations here that returns the hypergeometric function: 2_F_1(a,b;c;z). However, I know that I can respresent this as (1-z)^(-a) 2_F_1(a, c-b;,c;z/(1-z)), for example. How can I tell Maple to switch form one form to the other, or better yet, ensure that the soultions it outputs are of the second form in the first place? I have explored the hypergeom and convert help pages but have had no luck. Thanks very much!

I was a little bit unclear so I try to ask again: I have a procedure that is called: Optimization:=proc(f,Xmin0,Step,epsilon,Shorten,Nmax) global Powell_Search_Path; local i,j,x0,sloc,s_c,floc,s,h,criterion,good_step,index_STEP,step,Short,eps, STEP,x_step,F,x,criterion_exit,r,x_s,delta,d,m,f1,f2,f3,len0,Xmin, Xmin should be the variable for the optimized value. I want that the optimization stops when the optimized value is becoming negative (Xmin

How can I see the values of B[n,m] when is from 1 to 100 and m also?
