I am using the smart plot (i.e plot without giving the x=from..to) since I am generating these plots programmatically and better let Maple figure the best range to use.

But found Maple hangs on some solutions.

Here is an example

restart;
sol:=1/2/cos(x)*(sin(x)^2+(sin(x)^4+36*cos(x))^(1/2));
plot(sol);

I waited for 30 minutes and nothing happened.

If I change the above command to 

plot(sol,x=-Pi..Pi);

then it finishes instantly. It looks like Maple is stuck trying to find correct x and y ranges to use.

Is this known limitation  or smart plot or is this a bug?

Maple 2024.1 on windows 10.

sometimes (not often) I get this pop-up window when I open new worksheet and run something first time in it.

And it can last for 10-20 seconds until connection is made.

I have my preferences set to  create new engine for each worksheet.

The strange thing when this happened now, is that I only had 4 worksheets open and was not running anything in any of them. So Maple was not "busy". Task manage showed 8 mservers.exe processes on it at the time. Which is not unormal.

I have 128 GB and PC was not busy at the time this happened.

Any idea what can cause this to happen?

Windows 10 home edition, Maple 2024.1

Hi 

I teach Pre-Calulus High School level, and our school recently upgraded to Maple 2024. Like in Maple 2023 we use Assistant-Tools-import DATA and chosing an Excel file from which to import to do regression on.  In the new 2024 we have experienced, that Maple cannot read in DATA, meaning it cannot read column of DATA into a Maple document. However if we copy into Excel document on the machine locally, then there is no issue and the data is imported. 

Any idear what can cause this?  

before run file remove all (:) i want calculate equation but with a condition for example: when a=4 then find other parameter in my equation with respect to a=4 find other

Recently there have been some questions about the unit packages. I would like to add another one that has been on my desk for a while.

The Simple environement overloads the command frem and piecewise. The "most powerful" (can we say so?) environement Standard does not

{with(Units:-Simple)[]} minus {with(Units:-Standard)[]}
                       {frem, piecewise}

For example calculating the remainder of a length in mm does not work in the Standard environment

restart;
with(Units:-Simple):
convert(frem(1.234*Unit(m),Unit(cm)),units,mm);
                      4.000000000 Unit(mm)

restart;
with(Units:-Standard):
convert(frem(1.234*Unit(m),Unit(cm)),units,mm)
Error, invalid input: frem received 1.234*Units:-Unit(m), which is not valid for its 1st argument, x

Why is that?

A little continuation of topics 1 and 2. This is a very similar cube from 2, 
 

but with a different equation:

f1 := (x1-sin(x1))^2+(x2-sin(x2))^2+(x3-sin(x3))^2-0.02513144866;
And other point coordinates (-.8283302152, -.8283302152, .8283302152) and (.8283302152, .8283302152, -.8283302152).

I'm interested in installing the package update from I M Anderson's site, the Differential Geometry Software Project. This corresponds to the 2022 update. There are many new features:
- Submanifold theory
- Differential operators and  Pseudo-Differential Operators
- Principal connections
- Integrable System Library
- Cartan normal connections
and more. 
It's unfortunate that this update isn't included in this version of Maple 2024

Hi
i write my code for calculate this type of function but the result is so different from mine i  will post here i hope someone tell me where is problem

i have this

Is there a way to reassign the arcsecant function "arcsec()" as "asec()" so that "arcsec" can be assigned to the arcsecond unit "Unit(arcsec)"?

Ideally, I would like all of the inverse trigonometric functions to use the shorter notation "asec()" instead of "arcsec()".  I usually do this as aliases, i.e. "alias(asin = arcsin) : alias(asec = arcsec) :" but this won't allow reusing "arcsec" for a unit instead.

Example error for Maple 2023:

alias(asec = arcsec) :
AddUnit(astronomical_unit, context = astronomy, default = true, prefix = SI, conversion = 149597870700*m) : # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/astronomical_unit
AddUnit(second, context = angle, spelling = arcsecond, plural = arcseconds, symbol = arcsec, prefix = SI_negative) :

AddUnit(parsec, context = astronomy, default = true, prefix = SI, conversion = AU/tan(arcsec)) ; # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec#Calculating_the_value_of_a_parsec

"Pi/648000" has to be used instead of "arcsec" here when defining the parsec since "arcsec" is already reserved for the arcsecant function, even with "alias(asec = arcsec) ;".

Correction: it looks like the parsec was redefined by the IAU in 2012 as exactly "648000*AU/Pi" without any tangents (or sines) in the definition (so the angle subtended by 1 AU at 1 PC is actually 0.999999999992" not 1").  Both "astronomical_unit" and "parsec" have the wrong values in Maple 2023 which need to be corrected manually.  But the conflict between arcseconds and arcsecants remains the same.

I just saw that Maple 2024 no longer supports importing Quandl data.

If this is a feature that I will like to use, it is possible to keep both Maple 2023 and Maple 2024 installed at the same time on Microsoft Windows 11 without conflicts?  Or should I just not upgrade to Maple 2024?  I currently have a perpetual license for Maple 2023 and am on the 15-day trial for Maple 2024.

I just installed the 15-day trial for the new Maple 2024.  It looks like Maple 2024 has the same problem as Maple 2023 in that it will not maintain a connection to MapleCloud.  I can sign in to MapleCloud no problem but as soon as I close the window, it forgets my password and I have to log back in each time I want to access MapleCloud.  Is there a way for Maple 2023 or Maple 2024 to remember my Maplesoft password so I do not have to log back in every time I want to access MapleCloud?

why the instruction concerning the arcs is not resected ? Thank you.

Is the a print or plot function that can generate from an expression an expression tree

and/or the corresponding expression DAG

I am trying to program  this drawing, how to improve this code ? Thank you.

Whenever I call RandomGraph(20,200), Maple crashes both on the laptop and on the PC: any suggestion?
