Why does Maple display eval(diff(f(r),r),r=C)=0;  differently when C is a number?

unassign('f,C,r');
eval(diff(f(r),r),r=C)=0;
eval(diff(f(r),r),r=5)=0;

I wanted the first one to display the same as the second one. First one looks confusing. it looks like taking derivative w.r.t to C. Is there a way to make the first one look like:

I am learning how to use dchange in Maple. I can do  something as dchange(x=t^2) OK, but I need to do dchange(x=t^n) where "n" is meant to be a parameter that I can later use subs on to set it to any number I want.  But I do not know how to tell Maple that "t" is the new variable and that "n" is meant to be used as constant or parameter.

As an example, this works

n:=2;
ode:=x^2*diff(z(x),x)=0;
PDEtools:-dchange({x=t^n},ode,{t})

But this does not work

n:='n';
ode:=x^2*diff(z(x),x)=0;
PDEtools:-dchange({x=t^n},ode,{t});
subs(n=2,%)

It used "n" above as new variable. So the dependent variable which was z(x) became z(t,n). 

So I need to tell Maple that "t" is the new variable only and not "n" as well. 

Is it possible to do this in Maple?

Is this an expected behaviour for simplify/size? 

I was simplifying a result from pdsolve, but did not check that the solution was null or () before calling simplify.

It turns out that  simplify((),size)  returns size for this. I find this is very strange.

I would have expected it to return ().

I can fix this by checking that sol is not null before calling simplify ofcourse. But the question is, why does simplify((),size) return size? What is the logic for this? From help:

The simplify(expr, size) calling sequence is used to attempt simplifying the expression size, performing only collections and simple decomposition of fractional powers in the coefficients - sometimes taking advantage of linear factors when they exist. No other mathematical simplifications of the expression or its subexpressions is performed. These operations, while simple and with low computational cost, may remarkably structure the expression and reduce its size.
 

is it possible what happens is this: becuase "sol" was null, the call simplify(sol,size) has actually become simplify(size) and the result is size.  So because the first slot in the call was (), it was ignored during the call and the first parameter became size insteal of sol?

Maple 2019 on windows 10.

I googled, read help and not able to find how to do this. 

I want to change the zoom in worksheet to any value I want, and not just 100%,150%,75%, etc.... which are the values that are listed in View->Zoom factor.

Is there a place one can type in the zoom value they want? Say 110% or any other number?

Thank you

I read a string from file which contains a sequence of Maple commands, all in one string. The commands are separated by ";" in the string. I need to then evaluate all the commands in the string as if I typed them one after the other. 

Here is an example

data:="x:='x';y:='y';sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=1,y(x));"; #read from database
parse(data);

Warning, extra characters at end of parsed string
x := 'x'
 

I want the result to parse to be as if I typed

x:='x'; 
y:='y'; 
sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=1,y(x));

I looked at help in parse page, but I do not see what I need to do. It says that 

If the option 'statement' is specified, the string must consist of exactly one Maple statement (which includes expressions). The statement is parsed and evaluated, and the result is returned.
 

But I am not using the statment option. I also tried using this option, no change, same problem.

Is there a way to prase such a string? 

Thanks
