Dear Mapleprimes,

I'm trying to add a sequence of numbers using the add command. It appears that it can only add up to a specific number. The following works:

add(2*i, i=1..5)

gives 30.

But it is not possible to do:

add(2*i, i=1..n)

such that n is a parameter.

Does anyone know how to add a finite series of values where n is unknown?

I have a question in Maple TA that is asking for an answer in radians, and when I post the answer that I get it does not accept it...I'm assuming I'm doing the problem correctly, but my answer is not in the correct format.

Hello everyone

I have a function, constructed by numerically solving a set of differential equations.  I need to find a best fit for this function with an analitic model with two parameters. I tried to extract some points of this function and then using nonlinearfit:

xvalues:=Vector([seq(10⁵ ..10⁶,10⁴);

yvalues:=Vector([seq(evalf(function),x=10⁵ ..10⁶,10⁴)]);

with(Statistics):

Hello,

I have a derivation to do for my PhD thesis, and it is long and tedious. It is essentially a case of splitting sums, making substitutions and then simplifying. I believe maple can do this for me, but have not found how yet. Any suggestions would be more than welcome. I have done this for a third order problem (three nested sums) and the derivation runs to many pages. I now need to do so for the 4th order problem, and it is a more than daunting prospect

In polar coordinate, when we differentiate e_r, it becomes e[theta]. However it seems Maple can't do this, even I have set it into polar coordinate.

How can I allow maple to do this?

Any Example can help see the difference between contour and simple integration?

int(XXXX, x, method = contour);

int (XXX, x)

which example can help to see the difference?

hi

I wan`t use maple to solve my problem

x₁[n]= e^{j*( Π/6) *n}

Hey, so i guess i dont really know whats going on. I am trying to install Maple 10 on my Macbook Pro. I get an error message Uncaught exception in main method: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/crimson/parser/XMLReaderImpl when i try to open the program. Any help?

How to make maple to change ln(exp(x)) = x?  for example exp(ln(x)) = x, or ln(exp(x+1)) = x+1

How can I most succinctly and straightforwardly get Maple to simplify f below to g below?

> f:=(6*x^2-6*x+6)^(1/2)*(2*x^2-2*x+2)^(1/2);

                          (1/2)                 (1/2)
          /   2          \      /   2          \     
          \6 x  - 6 x + 6/      \2 x  - 2 x + 2/     

> g:=simplify(f) assuming x::real;

                        (1/2) / 2        \
                     2 3      \x  - x + 1/

I want to plot a random ... no, sorry, normal distribution of points around a line.  Let's supose we use the line sin(x) from x=0..2*Pi as an example. 

I have a complex nonlinear long term, I have not found a way to simulate this expression,how I can apply the method of least squares

Hi,

I want to evaluate an approximation of the solution of the equation eq1 in [0,1] using 4 digits.

In first try, when I first write Digits:=4,  this seems avoid the command fsolve to display the solution.

In second try, when I write evalf(fsolve(eq1,beta=0..1),4),  evalf seems avoid the command fsolve to display the solution.

In the final try, when I write  
> fsolve(eq1,beta=0..1):
> evalf(%,4);
I have...

when i use u and t in the lower bound of summation, everything works fine, as you can see, proc(2,10) gives me a number.

now, if i change u to T[3] and t to T[2], suddenly we have a problem! What gives?

I've finally tracked down a problem I was having to a behavior in Maple I find, possibly, understandable, but need to figure out how to prevent.   Specifically, in expressions of the form x^y, where both x and y may sometimes be zero, the behavior I require is for Maple to evaluate y first so x^0=1 whatever the value of x is.   (Maple does evaulate 0^0=1 itself, I note.)

An example where this sort of thing comes up is in an expression like

sum(x^k,k=0..5)
