it would be really great :-) and a lot of work ... at least for me that's a problem (besides typing) ... time ...
Sometimes I see Matlab m-files which I wish to have in Maple as code, mostly numerical stuff ... would be glad to find such a possibility for translation in future (the converse exists by CodeGeneration and yes, I know one could call Matlab ... if one would have it installed). I find it quite hard to translate manually, if being not familiar with Matlab.
I had a look at the link. The proof is a bit tricky and uses Lemma 1 (and l'Hospital), yes? I doubt that Maple would do that (it certainly uses algorithms to solve integrals). If you want to mimic the proof it should be possible, but my guess is, that's not what you have in mind. Yesterday I played a bit with the task (symmetry around 1/2 and shifting to 0), but found no answer. What always works: use the command "identify", it converts a numerical answer to a symbolic one if possible (but usually that not a proof, it however mostly lets you guess what you have to show).

no idea what the market size is for CA, but would guess the aim is not to get users switched from M to MMA or conversely, but to find new fields ... at least some of the things seen for Maple over the last years seems to aim this a version for dummies would help :-) not directly like Excel, but easy to use and most in industry have only 1 operating system ... or a small second ... even in the engineering departments that would not be too expensive for them, guess it's just too complicated
all around marketing and advertising is ways better, kind of what one expects in other industries ... (well, I do not like it, but seems to be a must for products) only had a look through www for 'integration', the examples are also at once done in M11
at least the short docu suggests to use it ... actually do not know and what would happen if you have 2 files in your root, one index.htm and one index.htmL and being not quite used with the protocol but you can try off Maple by opening a DOS prompt and enter various string: ping http://www.vladimirzak.com/maple ping http://www.vladimirzak.com the first does not resolve for a host name, the last does and if i would like to know the reason, then i would try to read about HTTP
i think you need to add the file name (a browser does it automatically by trying index.htm or index.html) (r, txt) := HTTP[Get]("http://www.vladimirzak.com/maple/index.html"); not sure what the command would do with the style sheets at your page
My primary problem was rendering the Math, typical publications are like the survey article Carr & Wu: A Tale of Two Indices, while the internal papers from banks I have are a bit easier and written in "industry style", but towards other aspects or audience. To nail that down for coding needs more paper and pencil than CPU time in Maple :-) Well, rendering ... I set the sheet to 75%, printed to ps (install some ps printer and print to a file) and converted to pdf using gsview. That's because Maple does not a have a pdf export ... but it should (and using Latex is not my thing, I never used it). BTW quality seems ok for zoom=100%, but that's too large for printing and also the Java interface is much nicer (but causes formatting problems for me and does not allow to print the 75% zoom). For the style sheet ... hm at my screen it gives me, what I want to see (the original style is like in kindergarden for colors or font sizes and more - like italics ... my taste is different). Also it may be through my local settings on (Win XP): it is 1280 * 1024 and using 110% DPI (=106 dpi) for fonts (the usual fonts are too small and the next standard fonts are too large for me) for an LCD sreen. May be a general hardware problem as well (and also had some driver problems after installing M11). But all that is much better than on my old & crashed PC and previous Maple versions, where a sqrt(x) was displayed by crossing x with a diagonal, I considered it as a funny feature :-(

thanks for the tip and on my PC the ini file is at C:\Programme\Maple11\Users (can not remember whether i installed it for single or multi user)
Yes it is ~ 5 times faster, however evalhf'able is the essential point and then it is ~ 1000 faster. It is just the following observation: for numeric approximation you will usually need coefficients given in arrays. Put them into a global array of double floats. Then you can make the code evalhf'able (at the cost of having globals - holding them local in the proc makes it slower, I do not know the exact reason - may be Maple's remember tables?). To be fair: it is only absolute exactness (as almost all numerical code not relative as Maple does), only integer index and real arguments and it covers no symbolics. And the Bessel Family is large ... But for many things that's just needed and enough.
Acer, yes, that's the source. I am not a lawyer, but care for the legal afairs and contracts at our software company and so will try to answer your implicitely stated inhibitions (if i got you right): According to the legal situation in the European Community (and guess also US) I am the author of the modification and thus have the rights for it (BTW: anybody can use it for free and ... [2 formal pages of text ... I think covered by signing to MaplePrimes]). The point is: you can not transfer the rights, only the ((un)restricted) usage and his text says not even that, but allows even more. However it would not be enough for a patent (that would be a mess, it would miss originality)), so in plain words his (c) says: use it, even distribute it. For the inhibitions: the double expontential integration method (used in Maple, Mathematica and other commercial software) is due to him and his teacher (you find it on his page as well). Does that hit the very point? Axel -------------------------------------------- Edited to add a citation: Dear Axel Vogt, > > I hope usage is ok according to your copyright? It is ok.

Thank you, that already helps! And: I was not aware of that option, very nice :-)
