Hi,

  My question is related to this one http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/37447-How-Can-I-Sort-A-List-Of-List-According

but not exactly the same.

  Suppose I have lists

***

f[1]:=[1,3,2];
f[2]:=[2,1,3];
f[3]:=[1,2,3];
f[4]:=[2,3,1];
f[5]:=[3,2,1];
f[6]:=[3,1,2];

***

  The aim of sorting is first, arrange by ascending order of the first variable, then the second, then the third.

I could program manually by explicitly comparision, is there any robust way in maple can do it (possibly a few build-in function)?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

  I have the following input in order to obtain the dimension of an array, by means of the values has been assigned

with(ArrayTools):
with(LinearAlgebra):
f[1]:=1:
f[2]:=2:
nops(f);
Size(f);
Dimension(f);

  The result is 

---

1
[ 1 1 ]
Error, invalid input: LinearAlgebra:-Dimension expects its 1st argument, A, to be of type {Matrix, Vector} or coercible via `~Simplify`, but received f

 ---

I cannot get number "2", which is expected. Is there any way to obtain that? I looked for help and mapleprime, without any simple solution ......

Thank you very much!

Hi,

  Suppose I have an array

A[1]:=a;

A[2]:=b;

A[3]:=c;

  I would like to check if an element, e.g. "c", belong to this array. I can contrsuct a "for... end do" command to compare each element and/or construct a subroutine. 

  Is there any build-in function in maple can do that? Perferably return true/false

Thank you!

Hi,

  Excuse me, I have the following code

###########################

with(combinat);
with(LinearAlgebra);
f:=([1,2,3]);
permute(f);

n:=3;
g:=array(1..n);

for i from 1 to n do
  g[i]:=i;
end do;

permute(g);

###########################

 The output ends up with

Error, (in combinat:-permute) 1st argument must be a list, set or a non-negative integer

 It seems that maple will not generate permutation of g... How to generate the permutation of array g? i.e. by assigning all variables automatically.

Thank you very much!

Hi,

  I have the following input

f:=x^2*exp(-1.2*x);
maximize(f, x=0..100,location);

 Maple gives me the location is x=1.25. However, how should I do to obtain this position?  If I write

a:=maximize(f, x=0..100,location);

  Seems it do not work :(

  I may try fsolve at the maximum value, but it seems to be awkward..

Thank you very much!
