These are questions asked by sursumCorda

In the Standard interface, the length of an expression that display in the worksheet can be limited using the Options dialog: Options Dialog - Precision Tab - Maple Help. However, I would like to know if I can change this option programmatically. The closest interface variables are elisiontermsbefore, elisiontermsafter and termelisionthreshold, but as the aforementioned help page states, they control the “term elision” and are not the same as “expression length limit”. So, is this possible? 

The second result is definitely wrong, but why is this? 

MmaTranslator:-FromMma("Subscript[x, 0] -> 2 (y - z) (y - z)");
                       MmaTranslator:-FromMma(

MmaTranslator:-FromMma("Subscript[x, 0] -> 2 (y - z)^2"); # should return: x[0] = 2*(y - z)^2
                      MmaTranslator:-FromMma(

The result is still wrong even if I type an explicit multiplication sign (for instance, "Subscript[x, 0] -> 2*(y - z)^2"). 

There exists a new (?) checkbox  in the Interface tab of the Options dialog: 

But I cannot find any find any explanation about it in the corresponding help page. What is the purpose of this feature? 

If I understand correctly, both of 

int(RETURN(is(y::positive)), y = 0 .. x) assuming 0 <= x, x < 1;
int(RETURN(coulditbe(y = 1)), y = 0 .. x) assuming 0 < x, x < 1;

should output `not`(true). However, Maple simply returns true for the second one. 
Isn't this result incorrect? Or am I missing something?

OEIS A034828 and OEIS A000292 (which give the Wiener index for the cycle graph and the path graph respectively) mention that 

the Wiener index of the cycle of length 19 is 855 and 
the Wiener index of the path with 19 edges is 1330

However, 

GraphTheory:-WienerIndex(GraphTheory:-CycleGraph(19));
 = 
                               38

GraphTheory:-WienerIndex(GraphTheory:-PathGraph(20));
 = 
                               38

So what happened here?
