I received my Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1998 and I have been teaching since then at SUNY Oneonta for 1 year, at Shepherd University for 5 years, at Tennessee Tech for 2 years, at Lane College for 1 year, and this year I taught at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. My research interests include Representation Theory and Combinatorics.

As far as I recall, the default is 10 in GUI and 25 in the command line.

Some of my old dreams - such as entering an excercise from an algebra textbook (in the exact form as it appears there) and getting a step-by-step solution, became realized in Wolfram Alpha. That's fantastic! Try

Solve x^2+2x-3=0

for example, and click Show steps after getting the page.

Try :-LinearAlgebra instead of LinearAlgebra.

Another solution - execute

unwith(Maplets[Examples]);

after you got your file.

It would be better to avoid using with(Maplets[Examples]) at all - then that problem wouldn't appear - it appears because Maplets[Examples] has LinearAlgebra subpackage.

Then it's certainly a good practise of copying and pasting. A lot of programmers work that way.

Kernel options (some) are accessible through

Maplets:-Examples:-KernelOpts();

but interface seems to be not implemented that way.

Replace 6 with 2*nop.

But if you already imported M as a matrix, it would be ,probably, better to use that matrix (as acer suggested) instead of reading the text file again.

Without importing the matrix, the scanning can be done as

fd:="foo.txt":
v:=fscanf(fd,"%{3}dc"):
for i while v<>0 do
    p[i]:=v[];
    n[i]:=fscanf(fd,"%{3}dc")[];
    v:=fscanf(fd,"%{3}dc") 
od:
close(fd);

Yes, it's so called PSL(2), where P stands for 'projective' - 2 matrices define the same transformation if they are proportional.

Yes, that's how it works - either maple -cw, or xmaple -cw in the terminal. If you want to start it by clicking, you can create a launcher on the desktop, with one of these 2 choices (with full paths), then clicking on it will start the Classic Worksheet - there is no a separate executable for it.

Alec

It should start with -cw option, either as

maple -cw

or using xmaple instead of maple (but with the same -cw option).

It works in the command line. However, none of that is working in Standard Maple. 

The first one, with !, gave me Error, missing operator or `;`

The system command showed a java window with exit value 0 and no answer.

The ssystem command produced the following result:

[0, ""obase=12;scale=11;sqrt(2)"|bc"]
