Hello!

I would like to start with the following set of 9 elements,
A = { E11, E12, E21, E22, E11+E12, E11+E21, E12+E22, E21+E22, E11+E12+E21+E22 }.

I need a procedure that takes each of those elements and creates 3 new ones in the following way: Eij becomes Eij1, Eij2, Eij1+Eij2. So for example, E11 will become: E111, E112, and E111+E112. And for example the fifth element in A (i.e. E11+E12) will become the 3 new elements: E111+E121, E112+E122, and E111+E121 + E112+E122.

Since each of the 9 elements gets triplicated, there will be a new set, call it B, with 27 elements.

B = {E111, E112, E111+E112, E121, E122, E121+E122, ... }

Now I want to repeat this process of triplicating again so that, for example, E111 becomes: E1111, E1112, and E1111+E1112. And so on. This new set C will have 81 elements. Now I want to repeat this one last time. The final set, D, will have 243 (3^5) elements. 

Step 2: 

For every pair of elements x and y in D, I want to compute z:=(x+y)mod2. If z already belongs to D, discard it, otherwise, place z in the set D2. Do this until there are no more elements to add together (note that if x+y is computed then I don't want y+x to be computed also--that's inefficient). Maybe the most efficient way is to perform all possibly combinations of x+y mod 2 to create the set D2 and then just go: D2 setminus D.

Step 3: For x in D and y in D2 perform all possible combinations of z:=(x+y)mod2 and place these in D3 then perform set subtraction again: D3 minus D2 minus D.

Repeat this process again: x in D and y in D3 to create new elements in D4. Repeat again until Dm is empty (that is, D(m-1) will be the last set that contains new elements). I'm expecting around 12 sets... 

The issue with this whole algorithm is that I often run out of memory so I need a clever way to do this, since this algorithm is essentially classifying 2^32 elements into disjoint sets. Thank you! 

Did Maplesoft make a statistics about questions on MaplePrimes?

There must be some commands frequently meet problems.

I listed 10 commands or packages need to be enhanced much more.

1.fsolve.

eg, roots of transcendental equation on complex plane & system of nonlinear equations.

2.int.

Both numerical integration & symbolic integration need further developed.

3.Eigenvalues&LinearSolve.

large scale computing, everyone needs it.

4.dsolve&pdsolve.

dsolve needs to be enhanced for solve more equations in parallel.

As mathematica 10 contains the FEM package, I think Maple needs to do something, develop a new package needs more time than make the existing pdsolve command better.

5.Threads package.

parallel programing is the future. BTW, why don't make the task model much easier to use, like the mathematica, just a command?

6.plot&plot3d

there is much space to go further about the two commands.

7.Optimization package or Statistics package.

In fact, both packages need to be further enhanced, especially for Optimization package.

Although some modern algorithms about optimization&statistics is much easier to see on the internet, the

Maplesoft should not stop, but go further, add them in Maple.

Above is just my opinion.

Thanks for your attention.

I have a polynomial p in two variables x and y, and I want to extract all the coefficients of p. For example, let p:=x^3+2*x*y^2-2*y^2+x, and I want to obtain the coefficient vector [1,0,0,1,0,2,0,0,-2,0], where 1,0,0,1,0,2,0,0,-2,0 are respectively the coefficients of x^3, x^2, x^2*y,x,x*y,x*y^2,y^0,y,y^2,y^3. In general, let 

p(x,y)=sum(sum(c_*{i, j}*x^(n-i)*y^j, j = 0 .. i), i = 0 .. n)

=c_{0,0}x^n

+c_{1,0}x^{n-1}+c_{1,1}x^{n-1}y

+c_{2.0}x^{n-2}+c_{2,1}x^{n-2}y+c_{2,2}x^{n-2}y^2

+\dots

+c_{n,0}+c_{n,1}y+c_{n,2}y^2+\dots+c_{n,n}y^{n}.

It is possible that some coefficients c_{i,j} are equal to 0. How to obtain the coefficient vector [c_{i,j},i=0..n,j=0..i] of p(x,y)?

Thanks a lot.

When the loop variable can be written as a unit step sequence, I never really distinguish between using

seq( f(i), i=m..n ), and

f(i) $ i=m..n

However I recent came across a case where the 'seq' construct ran about 2.5x faster. Is using 'seq' always faster? Does it depend on the function being evaluated? Why is there such a large difference in execution time

The original example which exhibited the problem is shown below, although after some experimentation, I have found other cases where 'seq' is faster (and plenty where it doesn't seem to make any difference!)

Example code for implementation using '$' is

restart:
ulim:=1000000:
t1:=time():
ans:= max
          ( { iquo(3*d, 7)/d $ d = 1..ulim }
             minus
            {3/7}
         ):
t2:= time()-t1;

Example code for for implementation using 'seq' is

restart:
ulim:=1000000:
t1:= time():
ans:= max
        ( { seq
            ( iquo(3*d, 7)/d, d=1..ulim )
          }
          minus
          {3/7}
        ):
t2:= time()-t1;

On my machine, the version using the 'seq' construct runs 2.5x faster

How to calculate the integral of (z-z0)*z/sqrt((x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2+(z-z0)^2)
over the unit sphere {(x,y,z):x^2+y^2+z^2<=1}
under the assumtion x0^2+y0^2+z0^2<=1 (x0^2+y0^2+z0^2>1)?
Its physical interpretation suggests the integral can be expressed through  elementary functions of the parameters.

My tries are
VectorCalculus:-int((z-z0)*z/sqrt((x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2+(z-z0)^2),[x,y,z]=Sphere(<0,0,0>,1)) assuming x0^2+y0^2+z0^2<=1;

and

VectorCalculus:-int(eval((z-z0)*z/sqrt((x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2+(z-z0)^2),
[x=r*sin(psi)*cos(theta),y=r*cos(psi)*sin(theta),z=r*cos(psi)])*r^2*sin(psi),
[r,psi,theta]=Parallelepiped(0..1,0..Pi,0..2*Pi)) assuming x0^2+y0^2+z0^2<=1;

The both are spinning on my comp. Also

VectorCalculus:-int((z-1/4)*z/sqrt((x-1/2)^2+(y-1/3)^2+(z-1/4)^2),[x,y,z]=Sphere(<0,0,0>,1),numeric);

is spinning.
Edt. The omitted part of the code assuming x0^2+y0^2+z0^2<=1 is added.

I have a great problem with this integral and Maple gives two answers completely different:

so I get two different results :

or this:

In the first integral A get Lommels2 and If I get the Integral by using Taylor of  and after that I resum I get Lommels1.

Thank you.

Hi All,

I have a problem with regard to partial differential equations. I am using Lagrangian dynamics for a problem. First i have a function First i defined a function with two speeds of angles (first derivatives):

ODE := 5*(diff(theta1(t), t))+diff(theta2(t), t). This gives:

Now this gives an output. Lagrange (just a simple example now) demands that i now derive the obtained function with regard to the first derivative of theta1. In this case, the answer i want is 5. Now, if i give the command: 

diff(ODE, diff(theta1(t),t)), maple says go home. Does anybody know how to solve this? I have been searching for a solution all afternoon.

Thnx in advance!

How does one adjust the aspect ratio for Maple plot? I actually searched for aspect ratio for Maple on google and not able to find much of anything. Help does not have such phrase. May be it called something else in Maple? The reason I ask, is that when I change the size of bode plot, the aspect ratio become bad. So I need a way to adjust that. Here is an example

restart:
alias(DS=DynamicSystems):
sys:=DS:-TransferFunction(5*s/(s^2+4*s+25)):
DS:-BodePlot(sys,range=0.1..100);

Now if I do

DS:-BodePlot(sys,range=0.1..100,size=[300,"default"]);

I am finding so many problems with Bodeplot in Maple, but this is for another time. I think it needs much more polishing

Hi all.

Assume that we have:

where

and assume we  want to construct a special Vector as

and from the above vector construct following matrix

how can we do it?

plot([S],x=0..8,style=point);

I have  plot problem .

I want to plot the statistics result,but it runs error.

Hi All,

I'm a new Maple user and I just have a question about evaluating a formula.

Say that you have a formula y=45*r*t

and you know what "r" is, lets say r=5

What do I do if I want to evaluate this formula for the values t=2 all they way up to t=150.

Is there a simple command that lets me do this?

Yours

John.

I am generating polynomials and I want to iterate each term in the polynomial and do something accordingly. I collect the first term. I wish to extract the tuples of 1,1,1 and 2,1,1 out and do some calculations.... Do you know how I could achieve that? Thank you:)

expr1 := mu*(h[1, 1, 1]+h[1, 1, 2]+h[1, 1, 3]+h[1, 1, 4])+J1*(h[1, 1, 1]*h[2, 1, 1]+h[1, 1, 2]*h[2, 1, 2]+h[1, 1, 3]*h[2, 1, 3]+h[1, 1, 4]*h[2, 1, 4])+2*J2*(h[1, 1, 1]*h[1, 1, 3]+h[1, 1, 2]*h[1, 1, 4]+h[1, 1, 3]*h[2, 1, 1]+h[1, 1, 4]*h[2, 1, 4]);
mu (h[1, 1, 1] + h[1, 1, 2] + h[1, 1, 3] + h[1, 1, 4]) + J1 (h[1,

1, 1] h[2, 1, 1] + h[1, 1, 2] h[2, 1, 2]

+ h[1, 1, 3] h[2, 1, 3] + h[1, 1, 4] h[2, 1, 4]) + 2 J2 (h[1,

1, 1] h[1, 1, 3] + h[1, 1, 2] h[1, 1, 4]

+ h[1, 1, 3] h[2, 1, 1] + h[1, 1, 4] h[2, 1, 4])
expand(expr1);
J1 h[1, 1, 1] h[2, 1, 1] + J1 h[1, 1, 2] h[2, 1, 2]

+ J1 h[1, 1, 3] h[2, 1, 3] + J1 h[1, 1, 4] h[2, 1, 4]

+ 2 J2 h[1, 1, 1] h[1, 1, 3] + 2 J2 h[1, 1, 2] h[1, 1, 4]

+ 2 J2 h[1, 1, 3] h[2, 1, 1] + 2 J2 h[1, 1, 4] h[2, 1, 4]

+ mu h[1, 1, 1] + mu h[1, 1, 2] + mu h[1, 1, 3]

I'm taking my first steps with maple and pdsolve, trying to run the example in the maplesoft support page:

http://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=examples/pdsolve_boundaryconditions

which reads

>
> restart; with(PDEtools);
> U := diff_table(u(x, t));
>

and I get a solution that is different from the web page, and when i run

Im using maple 13. Any tips about what's wrong?
