I am not able to find an example or how to do this in help.

In Explore, when making a slider, using say 

parameters=[  [ a=1..1000 ], .....]

Is there is a way to tell it to increment "a" by say 10 for each movement of the slider using the mouse? it seems to default in this case to 1 each time.

Actually it is very hard now to make the slider go to the exact value I want. Is there a way to better control what value "a" should be?

In Mathematica, slider supports increment. Also it is possible to open each slider and then click on + and -  in the small window that opens below the slider, where now each click on + now moves the slider by the increment one decides on.  But in Maple I see no place to tell it what increment to use?

If I try this (similar to when using seq command, as in seq(i, i=1..1000,10), it does not work

[ a=1 .. 100, 10 ]

Hoping it will increment/decrement by 10 each time, it gives error.

Imagine a slider that goes from 1 to 10,000. Then how will one control the slider to be say exactly 5,550 ?  It is impossible now. Here is an example

Explore(plot(a*sin(x),x=-3*Pi..3*Pi,'gridlines'),
   parameters=[[a=1 .. 10000]],
   initialvalues=[a=1000],
   width=500,placement='right');

Now try using the slider above to make it go to a=5550. 

very hard to control the slider as it is very sensetive to slider motion, a small touch makes it move by large amount.   

I was hoping that if I can make it move by say 10 at time, so it will be at least easier to control.

Any suggestions?

I see a web page called Slider Component   but have no idea if this is related to Explor or not and how to use it there.

I know I can change the slider to "controller = textarea", and this way I can type in the value I want instead of using a slider. But want to see first if standard slider has a way to allow changing the increment amout. If not, then may be will use textarea instead of slider.

I define coordinates, a metric, and a tensor. Works good.

I calculate a covariant derivative, and I get an answer in terms of an unevaluated sum of Christoffel symbols. Calculating a Christoffel symbol works well. How to evaluate the result of the covariant derivative?

Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to reproduce some results from the paper:

Peristaltic flow of a magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid through a bifurcated channel

I want to generate:

• Fig 1 (channel geometry)

• Fig 8 (pressure gradient vs axial coordinate ξ)

• Fig 11 (streamlines)

• Table 1 (resistance values)

I am using Maple 2018.

Below is my Maple code:
p1_ravi_sir.mw

Problem:

The plots do not match the paper

p1_ravi_sir.pdf

Why does my resistance value not change with M

 Could someone please help me:

• Correct the Maple code

• Solve equations (18–22) properly in Maple

• Generate the correct plots 

Thank you very much.

Is the Wigner Ville transform implemented in Maple or its' Toolboxes?

I have not used Explore command alot. Just starting to learn it. But I am stuck on improving the basic look of it.

There are way too much space between sliders and too much white space between the sliders and the plot itself. Also the fonts used below the sliders are too large and do not even know how to remove them or make the fonts smaller.

Looking at the help page, I do not see options to adjust these. But help pages are very hard to read to find an option.

Here is an example. I am using worksheet, with 100% default zoom.

Explore(plot((b+0.7)*sin(x/(a+1))/x+b, x=-4*Pi .. 4*Pi, view=-2 .. 6,gridlines),
        a=-2.0 .. 1.0, 
        b=0.0 .. 3.0,
        width=300,placement='top');

This is the output

I'd like to be like this

Overall, even though Explore works, I find the look of it pretty bad actually due to the above issues. It does not look professional and polished.

This is a big problem, because if there are 4 or 5 sliders, now one can not even see the plot itself when changing the sliders, because one has to scroll down to see the plot now and then scroll back up to reach the top sliders to move them.  Even on Large monitor.

Is there a trick to control the spacing between sliders and the main body which is the plot window? Removing all wasted white space and making sliders font smaller for numbers below the sliders or remove them will go long way to making Explore command output look better.

In attempting to follow a link in a Maple Template, I tried to use the URL in the link to search in the Application Center.This link only brings you to the main page for the application center. Attempts to search for AID 2438 did not bring up any returns.  Is there a procedure to search from the main page using the application ID. 

Specifically, I used the following link in the template.  Maple Application Center link

My question is: How do I search for a specific application page in the application center when you have an application ID?

Dear power users, I have a question I would like to convert the "results" variable in the attached document into an rtable or matrix. How can I do this? Thank you for your time and help in advance PrimesQuestion.mw

t := (5/9)*Pi;
e:=tan(t) + 4*sin(t);

is -sqrt(3)  but how to make Maple show this?

This is what I tried

t := (5/9)*Pi;
e:=tan(t) + 4*sin(t);
convert(e,radical);
simplify(e,trig);
simplify(e,constant);
allvalues(e);

The command "is" and "identify" knows this

is(e=-sqrt(3));
identify(evalf[32](e))

In Mathematica, FullSimplify can do it.

Any suggestions in Maple to simplify like the above?

Maple desperately needs a new full_simplify() command.

Having to keep trying different commands by trial and error in the hope one works is not the right way to do things.

I am trying to run Python for the first time in Maple 2025. Below is my simple proof of concept. This code only produces the following output: a # (a is a variable that contains a Python list) I don't understand why the python list which is assigned to variable "a" is not being displayed? It appears that the variable "a" is not being returned to Maple. This is the code that is being run in Maple 2025:

restart;
with(Python):
Start():
Run("import numpy as np"):
Run("a = np.arange(10).tolist()"):
a;

I am trying to calculate the stability of my solution using this integral test:

U = 1/2 * ∫ u(x,t)^2 dx

Then I want to compute the derivative with respect to epsilon and check if the result is greater than zero or less than zero.

I tried to do it in Maple but it is not working correctly.

Also, I want to substitute random numbers for the parameters to test stability. I prefer to use simple integer values like 1, 2, 3, etc., not decimal numbers. When I try random values, sometimes the result does not evaluate or gives complicated output.

I am trying to use the command try for catching errors. In the second case it does not work. Is there a way to catch the error in the second example?
I have Maple 2025.2

restart;
try : x:=0:1/x :catch: end try:#ok

try : simplify(convert(WhittakerW(7/3,1,hypergeom([1],[2],z)),trig))  catch : end try:

Does this symbol for equicalence exist in Maple ?  I can't find it in the pallets. 

If not is there a way of making it so I could add it to my favourites?

Example: For

ex:=(a+b*c)^2

I would like to get the following output

[`^`, [`+`, [`*`, b, c], a], 2]

I am mainly looking for "elegant" code (short but understandable).

If a one-liner is doable, which I doubt, I would be interested as well.

f:=subs(r=(sqrt(5)+1)/2,7*arctan(r)^2+2*arctan(r^3)^2-arctan(r^5)^2); 

The above expression is in fact equal to  (which may be obtained by the `identify` command). 
As the following worksheet shows, simplify(f); fails to do full simplifications and the result consists of the less simplified arctan(2/11), while simplify(f/Pi^2); succeeds in making full simplifications and returning the remarkably simpler form: 

Download simplify_a_constant.mw

Since arctan(2/11) can be expressed by the significantly more concise arctan(1/2) and Pi (that is, ), why didn't simplify(f); attempt to eliminate arctan(2/11) in the result to further simplify `f`?

In the attached file, I want to calculate the integral Q1. Numerically, this is easy to do in Maple. For theoretical reasons, the exact result pi/e is known. However, a contradiction arises between command lines (4) and (5). Command (6) is also unsuccessful, as its exact result is unknown. What am I doing wrong?
