I am trying to enter an ODE into Maple and I remember that Dr. Lopez showed how to use a prime to denote differentiation. When I try I get conflicting results: if I type

>  y''+y'+3*y=0;;

Error, unexpected single forward quote
But if I copy that command from the Help page Maple understands what I want. What is going on?

BTW, there is no entry for Differential Equations on the Help page.
