Posting Math to MaplePrimes

Since the topic of MaplePrimes is Mathematics, we have made it easy to have your postings on the site contain attractive formatted math notation. There are two major ways of doing this.

The easiest, is just to type the math notation straight into your post. MaplePrimes will then turn this into an attractive GIF image. Learn how.

You can also compose your posting inside of Maple and then post the Maple worksheet to MaplePrimes, learn about using this feature in the File Manager Help Page.

Posting 2D Math on MaplePrimes

There are two ways of directly entering math into MaplePrimes. The first is the <maple> tag. Any text between <maple></maple> tags will be interpreted as Maple syntax and be replaced with a 2D GIF image of that syntax.

For example, if you enter <maple>x^2/y^2</maple> you will get this image: x^2/y^2

Any Maple syntax will appear, so you can get complicated and enter this: <maple>sum(cos(x^2)/sin(exp(y)),x=1..infinity)</maple> which then appears as this image:

Note that Maple will perform some simplification on your Maple syntax, for example, <maple>2+2</maple> will become 2+2

You can also enter any math syntax using MathML. Any MathML tags will be replaced with a 2D GIF image of that MathML.

For example, this syntax:

Looks like this: $<math><mrow><mo>-</mo><mrow><mrow><mrow><mfrac><mn>1</mn><mn>90</mn></mfrac><mo>⁢</mo><msup><mi>h</mi><mn>5</mn></msup></mrow><mo>⁢</mo><msup><mi>f</mi><mrow><mi></mi><mo>⁡</mo><mfenced><mn>4</mn></mfenced></mrow></msup></mrow><mo>⁢</mo><mrow><mi></mi><mo>⁡</mo><mfenced><mi>ξ</mi></mfenced></mrow></mrow></mrow></math>$
