The following example arrived in my email inbox a few weeks ago. It spurred a short but lively thread of discussion amongst some Maple developers.

I thought that it was interesting enough to post here. I'll hold off on giving my own opinion right away, because I'm curious to read what other MaplePrimes members might write about it.

> q := (6*((1/3)*a-1/9))/(36*a-116+12*sqrt(12*a^3-3*a^2-54*a+93))^(1/3);
                                   6 (a/3 - 1/9...

Ok,

I have read the previous questions/answers regarding exporting a matrix to excel.  It is not working.

I am running Maple 10 Standard, XP, and Excel 2003.  I have Maple as an Add-In on Excel.

When I select my Matrix, right click, my options for export are:  MatLab, Tab Delimited, Matrix Market.  I chose Tab Delimited, but I get the same response from any choice, and an error box appears saying, "Error Fetching RTable ID".  Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hello,

I get an error message when I evaluate this line:

piecewise(And(And(abs(a)<infinity,a<>0),And(abs(b)<infinity,b<>0)),1,0);

Error, (in PDEtools/sort_as_in) sort: 2nd argument must be a function that always returns true or false

I don't know what the problem is with this line. I have Maple 12.

Have you got any idea?

How do I convert a 2D expression constructed with MathMLEditor to a normal 1 D string? I know that example 6 from the maplet builder tutorial does this, but the result is often in a prefix notation. For example, if I enter "x-square + 1" as a 2D expression in the MathMLEditor, the result is `&plus;`(x^2,1). I would like to get more normal x^2+1. I have examined the code generated by the maplet builder and experimented with options in the MathMLEditor and MathML[Import], but to no avail. Is there a way to convert the prefix notation to the more normal infix?

How do I simplify an expression imported from the MathMlEditor? For example, the following code is taken  from Maple help. I have saved the result in the variable abc.

with(Maplets[Elements]): maplet := Maplet([

    [BoxCell("Enter and expression")] , [MathMLEditor('reference'='ME1')],[Button("Done",Shutdown([ME1]))]  ]):

result := Maplets[Display](maplet): abc "= MathML[Import](result[1]);

Hello,

I am trying to assign a value to a variable depending on whether fsolve does or does not give a solution.

However, I cannot do it when there is no solution - fsolve returns unevaluated, and I cannot do almost anything with the unevaluated expression.

The only way I can do it is the following:

a:=fsolve(x+ln(x)=0,x=1..2);
if (a='fsolve(x+ln(x) = 0,x,1 .. 2)') then solution:='no' else solution:='yes' end if;

this equation does not have solutions, and returns the string to which I compare a.

Hi all

please help me to solve it

and give results please.......

Hi all,

I have the following ODE

sorry , i forget the term so the question is :

int ( q  * exp((1-b)^2* q_z^2 / lambda[1] ) * exp((1-b)^2* q^2 / lambda[2])   /  ((1+b^2*q^2+b^2*q_z^2)*(q^2+q_z^2)) , q_z= -infinity..infinity)  then w.r.t     q  from (0......infinity)

after integration we want to minimize the results , the range is as (b=0..1), ( lambda[1])  =1....100000) ,   (lambda[2])  =1....100000)

Hello,

I need some help to figure out how to get maple to use distributive property and rules of exponents.

>A:=R/(1+exp(-2(h-s))

>a:=A/(exp(h-s))

I would like to get the answer back in the form

R/(exp(h-s)+exp(-(h-s))

suggestions?

I have this line in maple 11:

polygonplot([[0,0],[1,1],[1,0],[0,0]],legend="stuff");

and the legend doesn't appear, is there a way to force maple to produce the legend (other than horribly right clicking and manually writing the legend in every time - I'm trying to make lots of polygon plots...)

thanks

Steve
