How to format columns with one complex number?

Manu — Mon, 07 May 2012 21:41:40 Z

Dear All,

Further to my previous question on this forum "How to write data from a matrix while choosing the format?", I would like to update it by adding a complex number. What is the easiest way to deal with that?

Here is the file (that does not compile): writedataMatrix.mw

> driver := proc () local A, B, x, f, g, i, j, format, fd:

A := Matrix(3, 3):
f := 1-2*I:
g := evalf(sin((1/5)*Pi)):

How to write data from a matrix to a file while choosing the format?

Manu — Fri, 04 May 2012 05:18:36 Z

Dear All,

I would like to know the easiest way to write data, that are stored in a matrix after a computation, to a file with a specific format. To be more precise, I wish to have the possibility to change the format for a given column.

Here is a trial (output is wrote to the terminal for simplification) based on some examples I found, but without success.

How do I set repeat count for a format descriptor in Maple?

Fizzle — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 15:51:05 Z

Hi all!

Please I'm having difficulties in specifying a repeat count for my format descriptor in Maple. For example,
If I want to repeat the format descriptor "%-+8.4f" ten times, is it compulsary that I write it explicitly as shown below?

fprintf(file, "\n%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f%-+8.4f",e[5],mp[5],zp[5],mt[5],zt[5],roc[5],ac[5],pnloc[5],fs[5],qcode[5]):

I know in Fortran, a descriptor such as "10F8.4" is possible....

turning off auto formatting and evaluate Pi

muffinman123 — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 17:56:08 Z

every time I enter / or ^, maple automatically changed the text I entered into fraction or power, and I am having hard time enter equations normally like the way I do in graphic calculator or matlab. I am forced to type all my equations on a text pad and then copy over.

is there a way to stop maple from auto formatting my input text? I am more of a matlab guy and I really need to use symbolics and integration abilities right now, but this version of maple is making...

Computable Document Format - wasn't Maple first?

Christopher2222 — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 13:09:13 Z

If I'm not mistaken Maple already had technical interactive documents. And Mathematica introduced cdf only in mid 2011, however why is there so much hype about cdf and media coverage about it replacing pdf's. Of course it differs by one letter and probably done so by design. And if pdf is so popular, then so might cdf be in the future. Pretty slick and trick marketing by Wolfram if you ask me.

Also Maple released the maple Player in...

Displaying calculations

trosenberger — Fri, 02 Dec 2011 16:07:47 Z

I have been using Maple in Document mode to provide documentation of engineering calculations according to various design standards.

I have been asked to provide more detail about certain critical calculations.

Ideally, I would want to enter the formula as a symbolic espression, then the output would begin with and echo of the expression with numberic values substituted for the variable names (ie without performing any mathematical operations), and then give the evaluated answer.

format polynomial outpu

raffamaiden — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 12:47:20 Z

Hi. I have a function defined like this:

myfun := proc(a11 ......)

f := a11 * x^2 + 2*a12*x*y + a22*y^2 + 2*a13*x + 2*a23*y + a33;
printf("\n");
printf("%a",f);

end proc;

When i call this function from my worksheet, the "f" polynomial is printed unformatted. For example the output in my worksheet is

x^2+6*x*y+y^2-2*2^(1/2)*x-6*2^(1/2)*y-4

Customizing MathML Output

Art Kalb — Wed, 25 May 2011 23:23:02 Z

The original question I posed was whether I could control the output format of a complex array in MathML. I will pose the more general question, how could I customize the MathML output (much like LaTeX output can be customized)?

Regards.

numeric format output

ciccarese — Tue, 03 May 2011 19:19:23 Z

Hi,

a very simple problem, but nevertheless I am really struggling with it and would appreciate any help.

10.0/50.0;

This generates the output: .20000000

However, I need the output in the format 0.20

I've already tried the numeric formatting dialogue but it didn't change anything.

Any hints?
