Hi!

I'mtrying to use Maple's statistic and linear algebra packages to get a functionality similar R. The biggest problem that I have currently is to find an easy/simple way to import and access data from tables/spreadheets in ascii notation (essentially what read.table(<filename>, <options>) gives you in R). I tried to use something like M:=ImportMatrix(<filename>) for that, which actually reads a table, but I don't know how to use to access/use the...

I'm really struggling to do some linear algebra over Galois fields in Maple with LinearAlgebra package. I looked at the documentation for LinearAlgebra[Nodular] and LinearAlgebra[Generic], but i failed to get even simple examples to work. For instance as simple example over GF(2) I tried the following code which in my understanding should return the vector [1,1,1], instead this however simply no result seemt to be computed:

restart;
#with(LinearAlgebra[Generic]):
