That's actually fairly impressive for one's first day with Maple (and the day is young in my time zone).</p> <p>An unevaluated function does need to have at least a name, something to put immediately in front of the (a, b, c, d). You are right that no explict expression or -&gt; is needed. I think from your example that you want to name it B. Do this:</p> <p><strong>restart;</strong><br><strong>mtaylor(B(a,b,c,d), [a=e,b=f,c=g,d=h], 2);</strong></p> <p>Does that give you what you want? I made the order 2 because 1 is too trivial an example for you to see what Maple is doing. Please feel free to followup here on MaplePrimes. Have fun exploring Maple.</p> <p>You were close.
