The round(x) statement rounds x to the nearest integer but if x has unirs it appears not to work. Known bug?

a := 15; b := 5.3

c := (1/100)*a+b

5.450000000

(1)

c := round(c)

5

``

A := 15*Unit('cm'); B := 5.3*Unit('m')

C := A+B

15*Units:-Unit(cm)+5.3*Units:-Unit(m)

(3)

C := simplify(C)

5.450000000*Units:-Unit(m)

Cr := round(C)

round(5.450000000*Units:-Unit(m))

Please tell me where I go wrong

And I have not even tried lamda in nanometers

Since theata is small I repalce sin(theta) by theta because, with units, sin did not compute

Anyone know a good reference (book/website) explaing Maple units?

Many thanks

From the screenshot we see that Maple has correctly replaced a in the defintion of s. But it has not incorported v[B]. I was a SMath (free from internet) user and this was a simple operation.

Thanks for any advice.

Q1: In place of three statments like >a:=3: b:=4; c:=5, I have found from an example in this forum that one can use >(a,b,c):=(3,4,5). And I find this useful in some applications. Anyone know what version of Maple introduced this? I can find not referneces in the Maple books I have

Q2: Maple someimes gives 'naked' decimals when I use Numeric formatting. Any way of avoiding this. I would  like 0.25 not .25

Many thanks


 

I am trying to plot y:=x^2+x-12 as a curve and as a series of point. It is just not working. Suggestions, please.
