Any idea why plot fail when adding legend and using {1} instead of [1] ? Since both have one curve.

Maple 2026 and 2025.2. searched help but do not see anything on this so far.

I use plots:-display(Array([p1,p2])) to make two plots (or more) show side by side in worksheet. The problem with this is that there is no way to control the overall width of the output. 

It always takes the entire width of the worksheet window.  Using size=...  makes no difference. This only changes the size of each plot, but does not change the width of the display. Even when using size= inside the plot itself and not inside the display command, it makes no difference to the overall width of display. 

Here is an example to make things clear (site will not let me upload the worksheet).

Here is code and screen shot

s:=t->2*t^4-30*t^3+135*t^2-120*t-10:
v:=t->diff(s(t),t):
p1:=plot(s(t),t=0..8,'gridlines','thickness'=3,'color'="red",'title'="Plot of s(t)"):
p2:=plot(v(t),t=0..8,'gridlines','thickness'=3,'color'="blue",'title'="Plot of v(t)"):
plots:-display(Array([p1,p2]));

This is too wide. Adding size makes no difference. What size does is change each plot size, but display still is using the whole width of the worksheet which makes it look ugly

plots:-display(Array([p1,p2]),size=[300,300]);

I wanted it to look like this (using paint.exe to move things)

ie. to adjust the overall size of the display.

I can avoid display all together and just do 

[p1,p2];
#or
Array([p1,p2]);

But now each plot becomes too small and do not know how to make it larger, but at least they do not take the whole width of the worksheet

Is there a way to tell display not to use the overall width of the worksheet? say to use 50% of the current width and center the output, like the above example made using paint.exe shows?

Could someone please help me understand this

restart;
expr:=(A*x-1 )/x
eval(expr,x=infinity)
    # 0    why?

limit(expr,x=infinity)
   # A correct

How did Maple evaluate expr to zero when x=infinity? What math did it use to obtain this result? Did it may be just saw infinity in denominator and said the whole thing therefore is zero?  But there is infinity in the numerator also and infinity/infinity is not defined.

Maple 2026 and Maple 2025.5 on windows 10

Maple 2026 can't solve this first textbook  ode. Book gives solution in the back which Mathematica gives, but for some strange reason, Maple dsolve can't solve it with the IC given. I also tried Maple 2025, it can't solve it.

ode:=diff(y(x),x)*sin(2*x) = 2*y(x)+2*cos(x); 
ic:=y(1/2*Pi) = 0; 
sol:=dsolve([ode,ic]);

No solution. returns ()

But this is the solution from book which Maple verfies is correct

book_sol:=y(x)=tan(x)-sec(x);
odetest(book_sol,[ode,ic])

gives [0,0]

Here is Mathematica also

Why Maple can't solve it? ofcourse it is not a bug not to be able to solve an ode, but Maple being the best ode solver in the world should have been able to solve it. I've also solved it by hand (it is just a linear first order ode) and got same solution. Maple can solve it without the IC. 

So the issue is in resolving constant of integration using IC is where the problem is.

May be someone could find why Maple can't solve for the constant of integration from the IC. Here is the solution without IC which Maple finds with no problem

ode:=diff(y(x),x)*sin(2*x) = 2*y(x)+2*cos(x); 
sol:=dsolve(ode);

Maple online help pages do not show which version of Maple the help pages for.

At the bottom or top of each help page there really should be something to tell the user which Maple version the help pages for.

For example, going to help on ?type and clicking details opens this page

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=type#bkmrk2

But I noticed this web page is different from the one I am looking at now on my installed Maple 2026. 

The above online page is missing new types. Here is screen side by side. Once the above web page opens, scolling down a little below where it shows "defined types" and you will see this difference:

You see, the online Maple help page is missing types shown in the installed version of the help page in Maple 2026.

And user has no clue looking at the web page, which version of Maple these help pages are for, as there is no indication any where on the page.

1) Why the web help pages are out of date?

2) Why is there no mention on the page, which Maple version there help pages represent?
