Dear people in mapleprimes,

>define(INT, linear, conditional(INT(a::algebraic, X::name) = a*X, _type(a, freeof(X))), INT(X::name, X::name) = (1/2)*X^2);

>INT(2*x+4, x);

x^2 + 4*x

>INT(z+x, z);

(1/2)* z ^2+ x*z

is written in the help page of maple.

This code is to make a function INT.

What it means is that if INT(a::algebraic, x::name) then this is transformed into a*X, where a is independent from x.

And, INT(X::name,X::name) is transformed into (1/2)*X^2.

The first of what I want to ask you is the way of use of "_type", which is not in the help page, and as for names with "_" ahead, 

it is written that "_" means internal command for Maple, so not to use it. Is it right to use a name with "_" ahead of it here?

The second of what I want to know is the way to use "conditional."

Please teach me the meaning of this.

Thanks in advance.

I hope you will teach me the above questions.

Best wishes.

Hello guys

I have a linear differentional equation which is in the 4th order. It is shown in the below:

P:=phi(x):
eq:=a11*diff(p,x,x,x,x)+a22*diff(p,x,x)+a33*p:
eq:=0:
where a11 and a22 and a33 are constant coefficients. The boundary value for this equation is:

phi(a)=sigma1 , phi(-a)=sigma1 , diff(p,x)(a)=0 , diff(p,x)=0

Now consider :

a11:=2.731e-10:
a22:=-1.651e-9:
a33:=3.09027e-10:
a:=35.714:
sigma1:=200e6:

when I use dsolve for deriving a good answer in this equation. there are four real roots .How can I solve it with these boundary condition?

I need to extract phi(x) from this equation.

Thanks

seq(i,i=1..5);  gives output 1,2,3,4,5

seq(i,i=5..1);  seems to get ignored in Maple 7.  It does not return an error message.

I was hoping to step back from a large number to a smaller one in stepsof minus one.  The for loop structure allows negative "increments" - so I experimented by putting the decrement value of -1 between the two dots.  I was expecting it to givean error message, so was surprisd when it gavesome output!

eg  seq(i, i=5.-1.2);  gives output of 38, -1

I'm curious as to what is happening here?  Also, has the seq command been upgraded in later versions of Maple?  eg is it possible to do negative decrements?

I have to find the volume of a solid using the disk/washer method and the shell method.  I think I have the first part(disk/washer) right.   I think the shell is off. The problem is "the region in the first quadrant that is bounded above by the curve y = 1/x^1/4, on the left by the line x = 1/16, and below bythe line y = 1 is revolved about the x-axis to generate a solid."    I am having computer problems so any help is appreciated. Thanks

Consider a plot generaged by:

export_plot_options:=font=[TIMES, roman, 30], axis=[thickness=4, location=low], size=[850,850]:
points := [seq([seq(exp(-(x^2+y^2)*(1/100)), x = -10.0 .. 10.0)], y = -10.0 .. 10.0)]:
plots:-listdensityplot(points, export_plot_options);

How can one get rid of white space between the axes and the actual data??

thanks

Hi there,

I would like to know whether there is some way to print non-integer axis numbers for a given plot.

Let's say I have an array for an independent variable such as [0.5 1 1.5 2]. I would like Maple to use these values in the corresponding axis instead of printing the array indices [1, 2, 3, 4].

I would like to know how this is done for a surface plot.

Attached is the worksheet where "b" is such a parameter/independent variable: MapleSimulation_test11.mw

Thank you,

jon

I am just starting with Maple 18 on Windows 8.1. I did not like the default color palette for 2D graphs and tried another one. So I edited my maple.ini file, which was in 

Hi,

  Excuse me, I tried to substract in a series expansion. It works for Taylor-type expansion, but not Laurent-type ones

*********

ffff:=1/(t-3);
ggg:=taylor(ffff,t=infinity,3);
coeff(ggg,t,-1);

ffff:=exp(t);
ggg:=taylor(ffff,t=0,3);
coeff(ggg,t,1);

*********

Maple gives me

Error, unable to compute coeff

1

. My question is, why "coeff" does not work in the first case? how to make it work? Though I can copy the expansion part, assign it to another variable, and "coeff" will work

Excuse me,

  I have the following input

***

fff:=x1^k;
int(fff,x1=0..x2);

***

I would like to obtain

1/(k+1)* (x2^(k+1)), k<>-1

but maple gives me just the same integral. Is there any way to get the expression?

Thank you!

Hello,

Im solving 4 ODE equations with BC. im trying to shoot the initial value but im having this error:

""Error, (in isolate) cannot isolate for a function when it appears with different arguments""

anyone could help me???

I am trying to make a plot3d on my Surface Pro  3 running Windows8.1.

The plot looks like a ghost.  Pale grey.  It looked nice and colourful when I executed the same command on an older computer a few hours ago.  (I know it was exactly the same command because I saved the file on my old computer and then opened in on the Surface Pro 3)

Is there a way to fix this?

plot3d(-x^2+y^2-3*x+2*y+100, x = -5 .. 8, y = -5 .. 5, transparency = 0, lightmodel = light1, glossiness = 1, filled = true, style = wireframeopaque, shading = zhue, view = [-5 .. 10, -5 .. 8, 0 .. 150]);

 OOPS!  Now the problem has corrected itself.  

I'm getting worried about all the weird things Maple is doing on this Surface Pro 3.  I'm trying to make up a final exam tonight (the exam is tomorrow).

I have downloaded MaplePlayer on my iPad.   I see that it comes with a number of "pre-recorded" programs that it can run.  Is there a way to have it run a Maple worksheet that I have written?   If so, how do I use this app to open an existing worksheet? 

Also, are there any plans for this app on the Android platform any time soon?

I have written a program and at one point I have an assignment statement like BG(i, j) :=1    When ever I run the program, I get a dialog box which asks me to choose between "function definition" and "remember table assignment."  Is there a way to tell the program that I want this to be a table assignment in the code so that I don't always have to answer the question?

I have written a program and I would like to embed a check near the beginning to see if input data was entered correctly.  I have written an "if statement" to check on this and I would like the program to stop execution at this point if the "if statement" criteria are met.   I get an error saying that this command is disabled.   I have tried "stop", "end" and "quit," as I understand that they are all the same.

Dear friends,

Recently I was surprised when discovered the following error in using the function solve. If I run the simlest example from the help system for the first time (or after restarting), the following error occurs:

If I run this example repeatedly, this brings the following:

Previously in earlier versions I used solve many times for very complex computations and have never seen something similar.

Any suggestions are welcomed.
