FAIL/FAIL and even FAIL/0 or 0/FAIL returns FAIL, so the previous version seems to be ok (with the typo corrected).

If d=0 why have you decided to return 1? It should be FAIL (or remain 0/0, hence error) because in this case the definition of the conditional probability is different, so not handled by the formula.

@tomleslie 

It was just a remark. I agree with you of course that the results of the two parsers should be the same.

Using complex numbers the proof is even shorter:

P[5]:=P[1]:
for i to 4 do Q[i] := P[i] + (P[i+1]-P[i])*exp(-I*Pi/4)/sqrt(2) od:
is( Q[3]-Q[1] = I* (Q[2]-Q[4]) );

        true

n dots (n>=2) surrounded by spaces (which is probably the preferable syntax) are interpreted as  ..  in both 1D and 2D.
seq(-3 ... 3);  seq(-3 .... 3);

@Markiyan Hirnyk 

The typo is obvious and the line was shown.

Conditioned:= proc(
   event::{relation, set(relation)},
   cond::{relation, set(relation)}, 
   rv::
      {name= RandomVariable &under Statistics:-RandomVariable,
       {set,list}(name= RandomVariable &under Statistics:-RandomVariable)
      }
) 
uses St= Statistics;
local 
   Event:= `if`(not event::set, {event}, event),
   #Cond:= `if`(not cond::set, {cond}, event),   #typo
   Cond:= `if`(not cond::set, {cond}, cond), 
   RV:= `if`(not rv::{set,list}, [rv], [rv[]]) 
;
   if nargs=3 then 
      (Event,Cond):= 
         subs(lhs~(RV)=~ St:-RandomVariable~(rhs~(RV)), [Event, Cond])[]
   fi;
   #union used rather than intersection because Probability considers a set
   #of relations the represent the intersection of the corresponding events. 
   St:-Probability(Event union Cond)/St:-Probability(Cond)
end proc:

Conditioned({2*X+4*Y <= 1}, {4*X+2*Y <= 1}, {X = Uniform(0, 1), Y = Uniform(0, 1)});

      FAIL

@Markiyan Hirnyk 

After correcting the mentioned typo it will return FAIL.
P.S. If Probability works for not necessarily independent vars, then Conditioned would be ok.

@Markiyan Hirnyk 

Probability cannot compute
Probability({X+Y<=2,X+Y>=1});

An easy example which can be computed geometrically at once is

Conditioned({2*X+4*Y <= 1}, {4*X+2*Y <= 1}, {X = Uniform(0, 1), Y = Uniform(0, 1)});

the result should be 2/3.

Edit. It seems that in Probability({...})  the set of all random variables must be independent.
Note that {X,Y} are independent but {X+Y, X-Y} are not.
(X+Y is a random variable even if it is not a "variable" in the Maple sense).

 

@Carl Love 

You have a typo in

Cond:= `if`(not cond::set, {cond}, event),

And indeed, Probability cannot compute

Probability({X^2+Y<=2,X+Y>=1}); #FAIL

A workaround would be to compute the double integral directy. Or wait for a more capable Probability.

filename contains the name of the temporary file. It must be in any directory with write permission.
Unfortunately I am not sure whether exportplot and plot/background is available in Maple 15. If not, you will have to see the links to older posts Acer has provided above. 

You use strangely the "dimension".
The 1st solve gives a 1-dimensional (linear) subspace in R^3  (or C^3 if a,b,c are considered in C) i.e. a straight line thru 0.

The 2nd solve gives the union of two such 1-dimensional (linear) subspaces; the topological dimension of the union is still 1.

@Preben Alsholm 

So, evalf prevents the evaluation of the first argument, just like
evalf := proc(x::uneval) ... end proc;

to generate polynomials with real roots would be to construct orthogonal polynomials wrt a (random) measure.
This way you can prescribe an interval containing the roots.

@Preben Alsholm 

It is very nice that Maple was able to compute the limit, but I am not at all sure that limits such as

limit( RootOf( f(x,y,_Z) ), y=1 );

are to be trusted mathematically, without a serious analysis.

 

@Carl Love 

But it's OK. I truly like your style.

@Carl Love 

You are (as always) a perfectionist :-)
