The Mapleprimes FAQ has a bullet item "How do I add typeset math to my post?" which is followed leads to an invalid link.

Instead, it should link to either this or this.

A search I was doing dug up this old gem, involving a discussion between Gerald Edgar and I over a Maple problem 16 years ago!

Easy challenge: improve on my solution to Gerald's problem.

History challenge: my email address shows as wmsical!jjcarett@watmath.waterloo.edu.  Can you puzzle that out?  That is really two questions, a) how is that an email address and b) what is 'wmsical' ?

Hello,

  New to Maplesoft so on a bit of an exploration here.  I see lots of applications, samples, worksheets, demos, etc., but is anyone aware of Maple packages/efforts that are full/thorough complements to any of the popular HS math textbooks in use (any/all grade levels)?  By full complement I mean Maple exercises/explorations/demos that, on a chapter by chapter basis, augment the specific topics/exercises of an entire text book.  I know any teacher can work up a sheet at anytime; I'm looking for prepackaged, ready to load and go for text books.

This workshop is focused on the intersection of programming languages (PL) and mechanized mathematics systems (MMS). The latter category subsumes present-day computer algebra systems (CAS), interactive proof assistants (PA), and automated theorem provers (ATP), all heading towards fully integrated mechanized mathematical assistants that are expected to emerge eventually (cf. the objective of Calculemus).

This is the second PLMMS workshop, with the first workshop held with Calculemus 2007 in Hagenberg, Austria.

Is there an error in Wikipedia?

Hello maple users/support!

How can I access local variables of a module without having to write set_X() get_X() functions for all variables I want to read/write to?

thx for your help,

           sepp.

First, consider the following two analogous codes:

restart:
x := setattribute({1,2},parity):
x,attributes(x);

restart:
x := setattribute([1,2],parity):
x,attributes(x);

Both in Maple 9.5 and Maple 11 they produce the expected output; {1, 2}, parity and [1, 2], parity, respectively. Next, consider the following two analogous codes:

As an example it is shown, how one convert a (simple) trigonometric equation into a polynomial problem and use Maple
to find a symbolic answer for the equation. The idea is to use the so called Joukowsky transform, which maps the circle
to the interval [-1, ... , +1].

I would have liked to simplify the result (as it is real in my case), but gave up. May be others have a good idea for that.

I need to find an example of a function of one variable that has an antiderivative that can be expressed very simply in terms of fuctions that a 1st-year calculus student would know, but int (command name in maple) can't find an antiderivative.

Hint: Start with the antiderivative F(x), and get f(x) by differentiating it and simplifying. You might try something involving a few square roots and logarithms or exponentials or trigonometric functions.

As of today, March 1, 2008, I see many uploaded mw files in the Recent Files section, do not appear intact. Is anyone trying to fix that problem?

 Here is an interesting look at the tetrations (infinitely repeating powers) of some fractions.

As a side note, we see that infinitely repeating powers of 1/4 could equal one product of repeating powers of 1/16

In analogy with something like

type(<1,2>,'Vector'(2,posint));

it would have been nice if something like

type({1,2},'set'(2,posint));
type([1,2],'list'(2,posint));

was possible. How can one, using type, check for a certain number of elements in sets and lists?

Why isn't answer (2) the same as answer (4) in the following:
