Many thanks Kitonium :)

@Kitonum 

Hi Kitonum,

What is the Maple equivalent of Mathematica's Position ?

M := {1, a, {c}, {2 + a}, {{{a}}}, {1 + a}}

MatrixQ[M]

False

Position[M, a]

{{2}, {4, 1, 2}, {5, 1, 1, 1}, {6, 1, 2}}    et voilà :)

Thanks,

JM

@nm 

Hello again nm,

This is a question of terminology.

M above is not a matrix but...MatrixForm returns a correct answer.

So what is the point to "matrixform" something which is not a matrix?

"math"ematica is at least incoherent.

JM

@nm 

Thank you nm this closes my question :)

Regards,

JM

@dharr 

running your worksheet I have :

error (in dsolve/numeric/BVPSolve) matrix is singular.

JM

@Kitonum 

I think you couldn't make it better :)

thanks a lot

@Kitonum 

hello kitonium,

it was useful to help me.

here is what i wanted to do :

l := x -> Generate(float(range = -sin(x) .. cos(x)));
l := proc (x) options operator, arrow; RandomTools:-Generate(flo\

  at(range = -sin(x) .. cos(x))) end proc


l(0);
                       0.8872250779482327

l(Pi/2);
                      -0.06168237488248558

plot('l(x)', x = -Pi .. Pi);

and it works correctly.

we "almost" have the graph of sin(x) or cos(x) but with some (white?) noise.

anyway i am not a probabilist nor a statistician.

thanks,

JM

@nm 

Thanks a lot nm. it does solve my little problem.

I didn"t think about evaluation.

IN "math"-ematica it is straitforward :

f[x_]:=RandomReal[{0,x}] then Plot. but from now on i will forget "math"ematica.

JM

@acer 

Acer I have Maple French Edition and the menus are...half in English and half in French...(rather strange idea)

So I was quite confused how to show all palettes.

But now I have "everything" and I can continue working with Maple.

Thank you so much acer :)

@acer 

kernelopts(version);
  Maple 2025.2, X86 64 WINDOWS, Nov 11 2025, Build ID 1971053

NULL;

I will have a look later, at the moment I am testing Airi* fonctions.

Thanks Acer

@acer and @scot

Hello and thanks again :)

Acer : I do not have a punctuation palette (i wasted all my day yesterday : no way)

Scot : I have a French/France keyboard so CTRL+SHIFT+" does absolutely nothing

"A" with the degree sign over the A is the symbol for Angström.

I am confused since I have been using Maple since 1992! It was Maple V.2

But I stopped using it from 2021 to 2025, I used "math"ematica instead , what a mistake...

Have a great day.

Jean-Michel.

@acer 

Thank you Acer...I did that this morning but couldn't find..idem for A with a ° on the top.

Anyway thank you.

@acer @nm

Thank you so much for your time and nice replies.

Kind regards,

Jean-Michel

@dharr and @acer

THANK YOU SO MUCH :-) to both of you!

In fact I didn't daydream , this IS of course false.

is(a[1] = a__1);
                             false

End of transmission :)

Jean-Michel
