Please do!

And an advantage of wiki, comparing to this site, is that everything can be edited as many times as you want, and not only by you, but also by anybody interested. And here, you can't even edit your own post after somebody (me in this post) replied to you.

Just added jsmath there, so formulas now can be entered using LaTeX and displayed as nice looking formulas.

It works just by adding

#format wiki_math
<<JsMath()>>

at the top of a wiki page. Or replacing #format wiki (if it is present) with
#format wiki_math, and then adding the second line the same as above. Please
don't hesitate to experiment with that in

http://mapleadvisor.com/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/JsMathTest
and
http://mapleadvisor.com/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/JsMathTest1 .

I completely agree with Alejandro. At this moment, wiki is in the original testing and creation phase. It is more important to have more pages on various topics. And since it is wiki (a collaborative effort), everything can be easily edited by everybody - somebody anonymous already corrected the FrontPage for grammar :)

I think, there are associated discussion pages in MoinMoin - at least I've heard of them. I don't have much (or almost any other than reading) experience with wiki myself. That seems to be interesting though now, when I got involved into this.

Edit: OK, I found it on the SupplementationPage: people can add a discssion link to a page by putting

#pragma supplementation-page on

at the top of it. Also, it is possible to create Discussion links at the top of all pages, and I just did that.

New Edit: Actually, Discussion links don't seem to work that great - because one can't tell from the page whether there is something on the discussion page, or not. I guess, that's why they were disabled by default. It is easier to add comments at the bottom of the page: ---- (4 dashes) can be used to create a horizontal line, then a comment can be easily seen. Also, that can be titled as a Discussion, or a Comment. An additional advantage is that that avoids jumping from the original page to the discussion page and back to see the content (well, that can be avoided by opening them in different tabs in the browser, too - but that requires some additional effort.)

PS I'd like to be able to correct Maple help pages that easily - most of them need a lot of editing. That was one of my May's suggestions - convert them to wiki and put it on this site -Alec

Edit of PS: Unfortunately, there seem to be no easy way of patching help pages that would avoid including unpatched (copyright protected) content, so such patches can't be put in a public place. New help pages and new Definitions seem to be possible put in the Wiki (which is, as I understand, a public domain if the copyright is not mentioned, but could be protected by, say, Artistic license, if the author would like that) -Alec 

The easiest way, probably, use one of virtual machines. Install Windows there, then Maple - at least I would do it that way.

Alec

PS I run into a problem with Mathematica trying to install it into a virtual machine on the same computer where I had it already installed. When I needed an activation code, I emailed them and received a responce with a form that I had to sign that I deleted the original installation - on the same computer - then, after signing that form, they would allow me to install it in the virtual machine. The most ridiculous thing related to that was that it was a complimentary copy of Mathematica that I got directly from Wolfram Research - well, at least I got 1 copy of it from them in contrast with Maplesoft which didn't send me any complimentary copies of Maple 12 (or 11) -Alec

PPS - When I mentioned legal problems above, I meant that installation of Windows version in plain Linux, not into a virtual machine, might have them - because it would require some things that could be considered as disassembling and reverse engineering. -Alec

From Windows partition - definitely no.

Installing Windows version in Linux, with WineTools and a lot of tweaking, probably, possible - but what's the point, plus that may have some legal concerns.

Alec

Georgios,

Thank you!

I copied them from the MS Outlook and they looked normal, so I didn't check where they were actually pointing. I hope, I fixed them now.

Alec

PS Currently I am extending it. Just added the AMSmath, now am trying to install AMS fonts etc. -Alec

Maple 12 gives only 4 solutions, but interesting ones,

solve(combine(eval(f,[t=x*h/tau])));

                              x, x, x, x

It should. I never tried it myself with POST, though (for forms) - too much typing (headers), and GET usually works OK even if forms use method=post.

I should say that it is not my method - I found it somewhere in the Maple Application center (don't remember exactly where - it was a long time ago.)

Following the code in my blog, I get all the headers,

with(StringTools):with(Sockets):s:=Open("www.math.tamu.edu",80):
Write(s,"GET /~yasskin/ HTTP/1.0\n\n"):
a := "":
		b := Read(s):
		while b <> false do
			a := cat(a,b):
			b := Read(s):
		end do:
Close(s):
a;

Since it is wiki, everybody can edit it. The difference between anonymous editing and editing after login is that for anonymous editing RecentChanges page shows your IP address, and for registered users it shows the name under which they are registered.

If one wishes, (s)he can edit by adding something, not necessarily with deleting.

Certainly, I could add a discussion board or something like that, Plone, for instance. Perhaps, instead of current Forum (which I put there just for discussions of such topics as future site development etc.) - but that would be in a separate from wiki place (MoinMoin developers consider the absence of a discussion board in it as a plus.) 

I don't consider myself being a wikimaster - I just provide a space for it (and for other possible projects, such as independent patch library etc.)  If I understand it correctly, Wiki was mainly Alejandro Jakubi idea.

Alec

Perhaps, something different would work, epstopng, for exampe.

f:=((1/24)*sqrt(1/11*(819+210*sqrt(5)-126*sqrt(11)-
90*sqrt(55)))*cos(sqrt(2/5*(7-2*sqrt(11)))*t*tau/h)+
(1/8)*sqrt(1/33*(273+70*sqrt(5)+42*sqrt(11)+
30*sqrt(55)))*cos(sqrt(2/5*(7+2*sqrt(11)))*t*tau/h))^2+
(-(1/8)*sqrt(1/11*(91+39*sqrt(5)-2*sqrt(22*(47+21*sqrt(5)))))*
sin(sqrt(2/5*(7-2*sqrt(11)))*t*tau/h)+(1/8)*sqrt(1/11*
(91+39*sqrt(5)+2*sqrt(22*(47+21*sqrt(5)))))*
sin(sqrt(2/5*(7+2*sqrt(11)))*t*tau/h))^2 - 1;

g:=evalf(combine(eval(f,[t=x*h/tau])));

  g := -0.1080787779 cos(-1.952215567 x)

         + 0.3273257083 cos(2.718244725 x)

         - 0.04594923692 cos(0.7660291588 x)

         - 0.00381174552 cos(4.670460292 x) - 0.5434920872

`+`(map2(abs@op,1,[op([1..-2],g)])[])+op(-1,g);

                            -0.0583266186

So, no - the maximal value of f for real t, h, and tau can not be greater than that, so there are no real solutions.

Complex solutions can be found in Maple, for example, by replacing cos with cosh, sin with sinh, and t with x*h/tau.
