MaplePrimes Questions

in here i want to apply this method for finding my parameter but is a special kind of substituion and i don't know how hundle this kind  and find the parameters i did some part but i didn't reach the target

Solving this ode, Maple says 

But notice, the xi and eta tangent vectors order is reversed. Maple says pattern is [0,F*G], but shows [F*G,0].

Also, when later using DEtools:-symgen with HINT option, it does not return the above result. Tried both patterns with 0 on left and 0 on right. In both cases symgen does not return what shows above. 

Why is that? Am I doing something wrong? Notice also it says   "way=HINT"  but I am not using way option. Only HINT option, Why is it saying way=HINT? it seems argument passing I  am using is wrong, but do not see why it could be wrong.  This is what help says

Has anybody seen the unit palette beeing empty? 

This is new to me. I normally use the unit entry in the favourites but this time wanted to try Maple presets.

I have written about unit problems before. I thought an update would solve the problems, but no.

I have a very simple example here where the unit can't be changed:

In the first example I am using capital M for mass; now I can change unit on density.

I'm doing some experimenting with the Optimization:-Maximize and Minimize functions, and I'm having difficulties getting them to find the actual extrema within a set of bounds.  I have found that the extrema they identify depend on the bounds, even when the same extrema lie within those bounds. I've also tried the initialpoint option to start the solution near the extrema and I've found three things: sometimes it works to get the correct solution, sometimes it doesn't and sometimes I get a message saying the initial point was ignored by the solver.

The problems I'm using are all taken from the Maple help or tutorials.

I haven't included a bunch of test cases but I've attached the Maple Flow file.  I have a suspicion it has to do with the second derivatives of the functions near the boundaries, but I'm not sure.

Can anyone point me to more information, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help.

I know this is a "silly" question but just recently my Tool Ribbon disapears or "retracts" into thin air and I have to first click on it to get it to "deploy" downward and then when I click on it to "Insert, View, Edit..." it then retracts and is gone once I do the click.  I am forced to do 2 clicks when before I had only to do one click.  This is not efficient.  I like the Ribbon concept for Maple 2025 but this is an irritating annoyance.  If some one knowlegeable could please take a few seconds to reply to this, I would greatly appreciate it.  BTW, this just started.  In an other machine I have where Maple 2025 is located, it doesn't do this.   I am sure it is a simple setting somewhere.  I just can't find that setting.  Thank you in advance 

Hello,

The title is misleading.

I can't remember how to enter a vector ( I mean the symbol 'arrow' ) for a vector , say u.

I have a normal French/France kb , so please no Klingon reply :)

So CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+F6 is no answer.

Thank you,

I am not desperatly seeking Susan but the code of the DoFit procedure (for what this early-year joke is worth)

showstat(Statistics:-LinearFit)  reveals LinearFit uses the procedure Statistics:-Regression:-LinearFit (lines 4 & 9).

Next
kernelopts(opaquemodules=false):
showstat(Statistics:-Regression:-LinearFit):

indicates the Maple procedure which really does the LinearFit has name DoFit (lines 6 & 16).

I spent some time using the Library assistant to try and find this procedure, in vain.
Where can I get the source of DoFit?

Thanks in advance.

almost i did all the case but some case i determined in red color are not satisfy what is problem of them and how i can apply the case 47-52, beside this i changed the ode in eq(15) i didn't write rho parameter  is make any problem?

Hello everyone,

I'm currently evaluating MapleFlow and the transition from MathCad sheets to this software.

I was looking at temperature conversions and this seems to be wrong:

I was expecting 0°C after the conversion. Has someone an explanation for this?

Thanks for your help.

Hello Ladies and Genlemen,

What is the command to display a list of *all* the packages in Maple ?

How do you insert an output for exemple (2.1.1) in a worksheet?

CTRL+K is inactive for me...it just adds a CRLF.

Thank you very much and kind regards,

Jean-Michel

I was searching release notes for some old Maple versions. I found so many broken links on Maple web pages. The first page is https://www.maplesoft.com/products/maple/history/ 

Scrolling down, and starting from Maple 2016 (about half way down the page), all links to the "product press release" are broken. This is the link to the right of each product.  All these links on the right, from 2016 to the end of the page are broken,

Clicking on any of these, sends the user to new broken web page, called https://www.maplesoft.com/company/publications/  titled "Maplesoft media coverage".

This page does not even work. Clicking on "Jump to year" does not open. Clicking in "first page" does nothing. Tried Edge browser on windows 10, also the page does nothing. 

Then I clicked on Maplesoft Media Releases link at top, and now it works.

But jumping to any year before  2016, all the links that show on those pages are broken. Try and see,

For example. jumping to 2015, and clicking on release called "

November 25, 2015"

Gives

This applies to each press release for each year from 2015 to 1997.

Hundreds of links are broken.

There is software which checks broken links, and it is free for windows, called Xenu's Link Sleuth. May be someone at Maplesoft can use it to find all broken links at Maplesoft web site and fix them?

It is not acceptable in this day and age to have a Major software company with a web site full of broken links.

Do not know if this known or reported or not. Just in case. Here is an example where odetest gives internal error when adding integer to assuming. 

Maple 2025.2. Firewall will not let me upload now. Here is code

sol:=y(x) = -4/9*I*(x+1)^(1/4)*(x-1)^(1/4)*2^(1/2)*x^2+4/9*(x+1)^(1/4)*(x-1)^(1/4)*2^(1/2)*x^2+4/9*I*(x+1)^(1/4)*(x-1)^(1/4)*2^(1/2)+1/9*x^4-4/9*(x+1)^(1/4)*(x-1)^(1/4)*2^(1/2)-16/9*I*(x+1)^(1/2)*(x-1)^(1/2)-2/9*x^2+1/9;
ode:=(-x^2+1)*diff(y(x),x)+x*y(x) = x*(-x^2+1)*y(x)^(1/2);
IC:=y(0) = 1;

odetest(sol,[ode,IC]) assuming integer,positive;

There used to be specific web pages, that lists specific update to Maple DE solver.

Only ones I can find are from version 8 to 16. Here are the links below. They start by saying this 

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple8/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple9/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple10/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple11/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple12/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple13/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple14/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple15/de

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=updates/Maple16/de

But these do not works for anything after Maple 16 and before 8. i.e. changing the number in the link to 17 or 18 and so on, gives no page found error.

All my search leads to no result.

Are such help pages still present for updates to DE solvers in Maple for versions after Maple 16? WHat link to use to access them?

When I look at web pages under "what is new" it also does not have specific section just for DE solver like those pages had. For example   https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/maple/view.aspx?path=updates%2Fv2025  does not have specific section just for DE solvers.

 i wait 30 minute to  see the result of this function it will zero or not but is not give me outcome, is so importan for me which to see this function is my answer, how i can see the result, can  anyone give me the way
