I'm a total novice in Maple. I need to work with operators for my Physical chemistry class but I don't know where to find the symbols for operators and how to work  with them  in Maple. In other words, I'm completely and totally lost. My  version of maple is 11.

Please help me,

<p>Hi. With the procedure below I want to evaluate the procedure 'OptEff' (which yields a pair of coordinates) for different values of one of the parameters 'delta', 'beta', 'r', 'alpha', 'm', where 'x' specifies which parameter in question, and I want the parameter to take the values given in 'x0'. I hoped that by 'for i in x0 do ...', I would be able to do this. However, all entries in L equals the first one, and corresponds to the first entry in 'x0'. I guess my use of 'subs' is not correct. Any help is appreciated.

Dear all:

   Maple help page says that POLYGONS() can only be used to plot convex polygons. I wonder how can I plot nonconvex polygons?

I tried a easy example
PLOT(POLYGONS([[0,0],[0,1],[1,1],[0.2,0.4],[1,0]]),COLOR(RGB,1,0,0));

which gives me sth. very strange plot...... :(

Thanks in advance.

Hallo everybody,

I am using maple 8. what is the most efficient way for computing the x-values corresponding to local  maxima and minima of a piecewise polynomial in a single variable x (typically an output of the spline command) over a given interval? I´ve also got another question, how can I extract the individual polynomials from the output of a piecewise function to use them for further computations? Thanks

Hi, sometimes when I am using the command Nonlinearfit for a data file to a known model equation and four fitting parameters Maple give me this warning : warning, limiting number of major interations has been reached. any one can help and explain the meaning of this warning? thanks

I need to solve P = Inertia*A*sigma[net]/(Inertia+(1/2)*A*(e+v)*d).  Everything has been defined, but v is dependent upon P.  I"ve tried rsolve (probably incorrectly) and all it gives me back is the same equation with all the variables replaced by their assigned values, still with P on both sides.

I'm defining variables in 2-D math worksheet. When I hit enter though, all that shows is a list of the defined variables, but not the variables that they've been assigned to.  For example, I'll enter "e:=0.0010;" and all that shows is "0.0010" instead of the "e=0.0010" that I need it to be.  I'm sure this is the most basic of things, but all the manuals and tutorials I've found just show it happening that way, they don't mention what to do if it doesn't happen.

 

Thanks

Inside a Proc() that I am writing I cannot do the following:

intercepts[b]:=intercepts[b+1];

where b is a number and intercepts is an array of size greater then or equal to b+1.  My confusion is that that same concept works outside of a Proc.. Am I missing something?

 

Thanks,

Hello,

I've changed my PC so I've tried to reinstall Maple 11 from XP to Vista (with the Vista installer of Maple). I've got the following issues:

how do u approximate matrix entries to a number of significant figures?

PLEASE HELP

I have two sets of scatter data.  Each set has been fit by a different function which is dependent on independent variable N.  The x-axis is 1/N. 

Set 1:

Scatter data is (0.125, -4.72557), (0.08333, -4.53944), (0.0625, -4.48229), (0.05, -4.42733)

where the x-axis is 1/N with N = 8, 12, 16, 20 and the y-axis is a function in terms of N as well: -8.55704612297018*SQRT(1-0.73962210555774*COS(PI()/(N+1)))

Set 2:

Scatter data is (0.125, -1.7312), (0.08333, -1.96658), (0.0625, -2.1274), (0.05, -2.187)

3.) A 5.00 x 10^2g block of metal absorbs 5016 joules of heat when its temperature changes from 20 degrees C to 30 degrees C. Calculate the specific heat of the metal.

I'm using Maple TA with first-year business students.

Hey, I want to look into something about n! I wrote a procedure like: > myfactorial:=proc(N) > local ptlist,k: > uses plots: > ptlist:=NULL: > for k to N do > ptlist:=ptlist,(k,k!): > od: > pointplot([ptlist],color=red); > end: myfactorial(20); works fine myfactorial(50); and more than 50 it says floating point overflow.please shorten axes.. is there a way to make it work? and n! is defined as int(x^n*exp(1)^(-x),x=0..infinity); why the output is Gamma (n+1) insteas of 1? simplify(%/n!); # can give me "1" and how do i get maple to plot

What I mean is, I have a set of variable, and a set of equations. The thing is, there are a lot of variables, and not enough equations to uniquely determine them unless the 'rules' are applied, which are:

1) all x_i that exist are integers between 1 and 9, i.e. x_i is in {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}

2) if x_i exists, then x_i<>x_i+1 AND x_i<>x_i+10
