      <title>`Solve/linear` dependencies.</title>

&lt;p&gt;I ran a procedure that uses&amp;nbsp;only `solve/linear`. The above error was returned. Any ideas why or how to prevent it?&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Does Maple work with a VPN?</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/244817-Does-Maple-Work-With-A-VPN?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Unanswered Questions</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;Does Maple natively work while using a VPN? If not, where do I go to learn how to configure it so it will work using a VPN? In Maple 2025 and Maple 2026, Maple will soft-lock when when attempting to execute any worksheet or attempting to read any help section when using a VPN under the default configuration configuration of Maple.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>OpenMaple installation</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/244814-OpenMaple-Installation?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Unanswered Questions</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m trying to play around using Maple from other programs (Python, Grasshopper, etc.).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As far as I can see the options are cmaple.exe (command line) and OpenMaple.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Regarding OpenMaple I&amp;#39;m stuck with getting it to work. As far as I can see, I need to define the MAPLE variable, and extend the path, right?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve added 2 things to the user environment variable in Windows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MAPLE=C:\Program Files\Maple 2026&lt;br&gt;
Path=.....;C:\Program Files\Maple 2026\bin.X86_64_WINDOWS&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To test I&amp;#39;ve used the program provided in the help file.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;import maplesoft.maple.namespace as msymbol&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately I get:&amp;nbsp;ModuleNotFoundError: No module named &amp;#39;maplesoft&amp;#39;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Any hints?&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Series simplification performance</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/244809-Series-Simplification-Performance?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Unanswered Questions</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;If I compare Maple 2024 and Maple 2022 on the exact same worksheet, Maple 2022 executes twice as fast as Maple 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For my kind of work this is very serious. I have programs that can take 10 or more days to complete calcuations, therefore what Maple 2022 will calculate in 10 days, Maple 2024 takes 20 days. It has wasted a LOT of my time, whatever the reason is.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here is the code:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
1) MM must be a high order series expansion with complex arguments so that simplification is not trivial. Use any such asymptotic expansion.&lt;br&gt;
NOTE: I can supply an expansion for a developer through official Maple support, but cannot release it publicly as it is part of a future publication. It is easy enough for anyone to create a complex expansion, with difficult simplification.&lt;br&gt;
2) The simplification of the expansion must at least take a couple of minutes at e.g. Order=10 for the comparison to make sense.&lt;br&gt;
3) Then run the program for Maple 2022 and Maple 2024 respectively and note execution time.&lt;br&gt;
4) This was run on Linux.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As you will see the Maple 2024 calculation takes twice as long as the Maple 2022 calculation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
SEE RESULTS AT END OF PROGRAM.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;testorder:=6;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;# Enter the expansion order here.&lt;br&gt;
MM:=??:&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;# Enter the expansion here.&lt;br&gt;
series(MM, x = 0, testorder):&lt;br&gt;
convert(%, polynom):&lt;br&gt;
map(simplify, %):&lt;br&gt;
#collect(%, x, simplify):&lt;br&gt;
simplify(%):&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RESULTS:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;OPTION1 Calculation time for series MM,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Maple 2024&lt;br&gt;
O(4):&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Linux Wall-Clock Time: 1.000 seconds&lt;br&gt;
O(6):&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Linux Wall-Clock Time: 11.000 seconds&lt;br&gt;

O(12): Linux Wall-Clock Time: &amp;nbsp;19593.000 seconds&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Maple 2022&lt;br&gt;
O(4):&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Linux Wall-Clock Time: 0.000 seconds&lt;br&gt;
O(6):&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Linux Wall-Clock Time: 9.000 seconds&lt;br&gt;

      <title>Error in Typesetting after loading module from Startup Code</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/244798-Error-In-Typesetting-After-Loading-Module?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Unanswered Questions</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;I am attaching two worksheets.&amp;nbsp; The first worksheet titled testflaw shows the original state of a module. The module in the startup code area contained two exported variables which were never implemented. The module had been used in testing the code.&amp;nbsp; The second worksheet testflaw2 shows the result after deleting the exported variables. (AsTable and TestAssociativity).&amp;nbsp; Note that when the worksheet opens a typesetting error code occurs.&amp;nbsp; It appears that the typesetting routines retain knowledge of the exported variables even after a Restart command.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/view.aspx?sf=244798_question/testflaw.mw"&gt;testflaw.mw&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
