Just adding:

In those case one can write myResult:= ... : # colon !!! to have it at hand for later use.

Then length(myResult) gives me an impression, for example length(myResult)/80/60
would give me the number of pages (80 characters per line, 60 lines per page).

But its only a trivial side remark on possible usage. 

not sure why you ask ... but the general principles of advertising may apply together with the most general law of social structures, already to be found in 'Animal Farm' ... eventually ... just in case you are serious

I think that also is true in a "coded" situation, avoiding conversions between different types

Will,

Though the current board search fits the layout & style it would
be simply very helpfull to have the advanced search options
which are common to Google 'users'.

In the current presentation one can not even guess, that it can
be used.

The only thing missing there is a refresh to re-enter that mask.

Advanced Search for Maple Primes

pagan,

Thanks for your reply from December 10 2010 (what a mess, that this board distroys
time ordering).

Hm ... as long as this is not 'confirmed' I feel unsecure to go that route. The reason
is simple: how do I know, that it works in upcoming Maple versions?

The major pain is not spending money for a PC/notebook and its operating system,
but building the new machine, transfering all the data and re-configuring.

While currently (except possible speed? Anyway: still on WIN) I do not miss 64 bit at all.

So far I missed an official statement towards that (ok, may be my fault in simply not
recognizing such).

PS: thx for reminding Cuda support beyond Maple, that may be a reason to pass to
a new machine, out of interest.

Using Maple 12

restart;
Digits:=14;
with(Optimization);

maximize(abs(.5547114632*x^2+1.130478381*x+.9883691714-exp(x)), x = -1.0 .. 1.0, location);

    0.04568872338510, {[{x = 1.0020123089130}, 0.04568872338510]}

Thus it is not in the desired range. But (Upper Case):

Maximize(abs(.5547114632*x^2+1.130478381*x+.9883691714-exp(x)), x = -1 .. 1);

         [0.0456887233851495102, [x = -0.436328927088228680]]

Thx. Though it is sad. Even more than that.

IIRC 64 bit would not allow classical interface for Maple ?

On my M12 that does not work - which version is needed for it?
"Error, invalid input .... , but received all" is the message.

Using a new test version it works for the examples, but the
following is a bit strange (should one exclude integers?):

sqrt(x^3); ExtractRadicands(%);

                                    3
                         {[x, 3], [x , 1/2]}
