Consider the following:

MyTableElement1 := proc(L::list(nonnegint))
  ## L will have only two elements
  local M, x, y;
  M:=L;
  x:=convert(M[1],string);
  y:=convert(M[2],string);

  return cat("\\begin{tabular}{c} ",x," \\\\ ",y," \\end{tabular}")

end;

MyTableElement1([2,3]);

will output

"\begin{tabular}{c} 2 \\ 3 \end{tabular}"

as desired. However, if one inserts an \hline into the table,

MyTableElement2 := proc(L::list(nonnegint))
  ## L will have only two elements
  local M, x, y;
  M:=L;
  x:=convert(M[1],string);
  y:=convert(M[2],string);

  return cat("\\begin{tabular}{c} ",x," \\\\ \\hline ",y," \\end{tabular}")

end;

will output

"\begin{tabular}{c} 2 \\ \hline 3 \end{tabular}"

again as desired. However, if I copy and paste this int a document, I get

"\begin{tabular}{c} 2 \\ hline 3 \end{tabular}".

Note that \hline is now just hline. Putting "\\\\" in front of the hline outputs

"\begin{tabular}{c} 2 \\ \\hline 3 \end{tabular}",

but this does not compile properly. How can I get a proper \hline command to appear in the table? Thank uou for your consideration.

int(int(x,y^4..16),y=0..2);

yields the output $\int_0^2\int_{y^4}^{16} x(x) dx dy$.

The command

fd:=fopen("C:/temp/",'WRITE');

suddenly does not work. I keep getting a 'permission denied' error message. I haven't had to write anything to a file for a while so do you think the recent windows update screwed something up? In fact, I can't seem to write any file anywhere. It was working weeks ago. My apology if this ends up being a lame question. :)

Hello,

Maple 18. I just got a 4K monitor and the filenames and bottom toolbar are far too small. Is there any way to resize them? Does the same problem exist on later versions?

Thank you.

I am using the solve command and the independent variables are in the form x=x. How can I output the solution as a list [set of solutions,independent variables]? The command select(z->symbol=symbol,S), where S is my set of solutions, does not work.
