Would be nice if someone could add Maple 2021 to Software Change Requests list.

Right now Maple 2021 is unusable for us due to a big problem related to saving workbooks.

I've experienced problems a couple of times when trying to save a workbook in Maple 2021.

At first I thought it was due to a unstable VPN connection, but this also happens on a local drive.

Here's another basic question in programming, sorry about that.

This little program does a loop over a table which was just created, and thus empty. As far as I can see the for - do loop goes through the loop at least once.

Is there a way to change the program, so that it doesn't go through the contents of the loop at all?


 

i := table()

table( [ ] )

(1)

NULL

a := 0;

0

1

1

numelems(i)

0

(2)

NULL

Any idea how I can get the number of elements in an exprseq after a SearchAll command?

numelems apparently is not the right function.


 

with(StringTools)

a := "tre - tre - tre"

"tre - tre - tre"

(1)

b := SearchAll("-", a)

5, 11

(2)

whattype(b)

exprseq

(3)

numelems(b)

Error, invalid input: numelems expects 1 argument, but received 2

Here's another possible bug related to special characters (like ø, æ, å).

SubString considers each of the characters to be consisting of 2 different other ones.

Related to https://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/231765-Special-Characters-In-Maple-Workbook-Code.

with(StringTools)

a := "Øyeblikk"

"Øyeblikk"

(1)

SubString(a, 2 .. ())

"�yeblikk"

(2)

SubString(a, 1 .. ())

"Øyeblikk"

(3)

SubString(a, 3 .. ())

"yeblikk"

(4)
