I want to present my regional plot similar to the sample shown, using appropriate legends and labels. What syntax should I use to achieve this? Also, the axis labels need to be clear and bold, as they currently appear faded. What modifications should I make in the syntax?

Q1.mw

SAMPLE:

according to help under Explore, it says

I wanted to add title at top of the Explore window. But title do not show. 

Explore(plot(a*sin(b*t),t=0..10),
   parameters=[              
        [a=1..20],
        [b=1..20]
        ],
  initialvalues=[a=6,b=5],placement='right',width=300,'title'="My Explore");

I was expecting My Explore to show at top of frame above. What Am I doing wrong?

Maple 2025.2

Is this a bug?  Or one can not mix slider for one variable and textarea for second variable in Explore?

Or do I need to initialize the textarea is special way? Nothing in help shows an example with textarea and slider together.

Download explor_feb_19_2026.mw

I am not able to find an example or how to do this in help.

In Explore, when making a slider, using say 

parameters=[  [ a=1..1000 ], .....]

Is there is a way to tell it to increment "a" by say 10 for each movement of the slider using the mouse? it seems to default in this case to 1 each time.

Actually it is very hard now to make the slider go to the exact value I want. Is there a way to better control what value "a" should be?

In Mathematica, slider supports increment. Also it is possible to open each slider and then click on + and -  in the small window that opens below the slider, where now each click on + now moves the slider by the increment one decides on.  But in Maple I see no place to tell it what increment to use?

If I try this (similar to when using seq command, as in seq(i, i=1..1000,10), it does not work

[ a=1 .. 100, 10 ]

Hoping it will increment/decrement by 10 each time, it gives error.

Imagine a slider that goes from 1 to 10,000. Then how will one control the slider to be say exactly 5,550 ?  It is impossible now. Here is an example

Explore(plot(a*sin(x),x=-3*Pi..3*Pi,'gridlines'),
   parameters=[[a=1 .. 10000]],
   initialvalues=[a=1000],
   width=500,placement='right');

Now try using the slider above to make it go to a=5550. 

very hard to control the slider as it is very sensetive to slider motion, a small touch makes it move by large amount.   

I was hoping that if I can make it move by say 10 at time, so it will be at least easier to control.

Any suggestions?

I see a web page called Slider Component   but have no idea if this is related to Explor or not and how to use it there.

I know I can change the slider to "controller = textarea", and this way I can type in the value I want instead of using a slider. But want to see first if standard slider has a way to allow changing the increment amout. If not, then may be will use textarea instead of slider.

I define coordinates, a metric, and a tensor. Works good.

I calculate a covariant derivative, and I get an answer in terms of an unevaluated sum of Christoffel symbols. Calculating a Christoffel symbol works well. How to evaluate the result of the covariant derivative?

Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to reproduce some results from the paper:

Peristaltic flow of a magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid through a bifurcated channel

I want to generate:

• Fig 1 (channel geometry)

• Fig 8 (pressure gradient vs axial coordinate ξ)

• Fig 11 (streamlines)

• Table 1 (resistance values)

I am using Maple 2018.

Below is my Maple code:
p1_ravi_sir.mw

Problem:

The plots do not match the paper

p1_ravi_sir.pdf

Why does my resistance value not change with M

 Could someone please help me:

• Correct the Maple code

• Solve equations (18–22) properly in Maple

• Generate the correct plots 

Thank you very much.

I think there may be a saboteur in the programming/Help department. For a beginner here are some cautions you WILL NOT FIND in Help system.

If you are writing a procedure and wisely choose to include a description:

format must be description " anything here " ;

MUST end with a colon or semicolon 
description MUST be lower case 
the comment MUST be enclosed in double quotes

If you want to view the description of procedure p
you MUST enter Describe (p) because describe(p) will not work nor will description (p);.

In future versions of Maple these rules may change-perhaps

format must be deScriPtiOn " anything here " ;#!!!
and if you want to view the description of procedure p you MUST enter DEsCriBbe ("p') ;

who knows what lies ahead?

Is the Wigner Ville transform implemented in Maple or its' Toolboxes?

I have not used Explore command alot. Just starting to learn it. But I am stuck on improving the basic look of it.

There are way too much space between sliders and too much white space between the sliders and the plot itself. Also the fonts used below the sliders are too large and do not even know how to remove them or make the fonts smaller.

Looking at the help page, I do not see options to adjust these. But help pages are very hard to read to find an option.

Here is an example. I am using worksheet, with 100% default zoom.

Explore(plot((b+0.7)*sin(x/(a+1))/x+b, x=-4*Pi .. 4*Pi, view=-2 .. 6,gridlines),
        a=-2.0 .. 1.0, 
        b=0.0 .. 3.0,
        width=300,placement='top');

This is the output

I'd like to be like this

Overall, even though Explore works, I find the look of it pretty bad actually due to the above issues. It does not look professional and polished.

This is a big problem, because if there are 4 or 5 sliders, now one can not even see the plot itself when changing the sliders, because one has to scroll down to see the plot now and then scroll back up to reach the top sliders to move them.  Even on Large monitor.

Is there a trick to control the spacing between sliders and the main body which is the plot window? Removing all wasted white space and making sliders font smaller for numbers below the sliders or remove them will go long way to making Explore command output look better.

Hi there, distinguished audience,

Let f(n)=n²+n+41.

further, require n to be a positive integer.
Look at the cases when f(n) is a prime number, or a composite number.
Beautiful parabola patterns appear.
see attached

writeup_for_prime_producing_trinomial_final.pdf

I also look at the case when there is

n²+n+17.

Dear power users, I have a question I would like to convert the "results" variable in the attached document into an rtable or matrix. How can I do this? Thank you for your time and help in advance PrimesQuestion.mw

t := (5/9)*Pi;
e:=tan(t) + 4*sin(t);

is -sqrt(3)  but how to make Maple show this?

This is what I tried

t := (5/9)*Pi;
e:=tan(t) + 4*sin(t);
convert(e,radical);
simplify(e,trig);
simplify(e,constant);
allvalues(e);

The command "is" and "identify" knows this

is(e=-sqrt(3));
identify(evalf[32](e))

In Mathematica, FullSimplify can do it.

Any suggestions in Maple to simplify like the above?

Maple desperately needs a new full_simplify() command.

Having to keep trying different commands by trial and error in the hope one works is not the right way to do things.

I am trying to run Python for the first time in Maple 2025. Below is my simple proof of concept. This code only produces the following output: a # (a is a variable that contains a Python list) I don't understand why the python list which is assigned to variable "a" is not being displayed? It appears that the variable "a" is not being returned to Maple. This is the code that is being run in Maple 2025:

restart;
with(Python):
Start():
Run("import numpy as np"):
Run("a = np.arange(10).tolist()"):
a;

I am trying to calculate the stability of my solution using this integral test:

U = 1/2 * ∫ u(x,t)^2 dx

Then I want to compute the derivative with respect to epsilon and check if the result is greater than zero or less than zero.

I tried to do it in Maple but it is not working correctly.

Also, I want to substitute random numbers for the parameters to test stability. I prefer to use simple integer values like 1, 2, 3, etc., not decimal numbers. When I try random values, sometimes the result does not evaluate or gives complicated output.

I am trying to use the command try for catching errors. In the second case it does not work. Is there a way to catch the error in the second example?
I have Maple 2025.2

restart;
try : x:=0:1/x :catch: end try:#ok

try : simplify(convert(WhittakerW(7/3,1,hypergeom([1],[2],z)),trig))  catch : end try:
