Hello. I've tried to create function with x[1] variable, but at any time I receive the following error: > f := x[1] -> x[1]; Error, symbol or symbol::type or symbol:=expression expected in parameter list What is the problem here? IIUC x[1] is the element 1 of array x. So does maple forbid usage of array elements in function definitions? Thank you for your time.

Hey Is it possible to specify a domain or boundaries for a function / expression and if so, how to do it? Here is an example of want I want to do: If I have the following function f(x)=x^2 and solve this problem solve(f(x)=4,x) I get the answers x=-2 or x=2, but I want to be able to specify that x has to be greater than 0 (0solve(f(x)=2,x)|x>0 but I can't in Maple. Generally I could use | to assign values and limitations to expressions.

How do i solve for C? C = 23481726526273849572 ^ 10982375684973 mod 2984652746 M e n I was told the proper command was C := M&\^e mod n; OR C := Power(M,e) mod n; but neither work.

Hi, I'm somewhat new to Maple and I have a problem that I can't figure out. I have an excel file that performs a series of calculations and I would like to plot the values from a single cell as an input parameter cell is varied. Is there a way that I can use Maple to do this? I tried exporting a value to the input parameter cell, and then importing the value from the output cell, but the value that gets imported isn't changing as I vary the exported value. If I open the excel file itself, the values have changed, so I know the export is working, but it doesn't seem to want to import the new value from excel.

In Maple,how can I simplify an expression to a better form ? Like this,for example: a^2+2ab+b^2 -> (a+b)^2 a^3+3a^2*b+3a*b^2+b^3 -> (a+b)^3 As I know,simplify() only groups similar terms and some simple computations, doesn't it ? So , how can we do like the above ? I think that Maple must be able to do that , because it's a required utility of a CAS.

I use Maple-11 , especially the Physics and Tensor, Diff Geometry packages, in a worksheet. How do I get to create tensors with a uniform notation for covariant and contravarint indices using Create or Define ? I need tensors like, for instance, A superscript i, subscript j, as in McCONNELL (Abs. Diff Calculus) How do we get a uniform notation for tensors on a worksheet using either the Physics or Diff Geom package ? Are Create and Define equivalent ? Can thye be made to print tensors with the same format, or appearance? Please give me a few examples. Thanks. Radhakrishna Prof Physics

I have get a functionsystem:

I apologize to ask this rather simplistic question, but I am very new to this. I can plot a function such as plot(10*x3, x=1..5); BUT what if the range is only specific points such as x=1, 0,07, 8? What is the syntax for this range?

I'm trying to swap rows of a matrix using the LinearAlgebra package not the linalg one. is there a easy way of doing this?

The special linear group SL(2)consists of all 2 x 2 matrices (with complex elements) having a determinant of +1. Show that such matrices form a group. Note. The SL(2) group can be related to the full Lorentz group in Section 4.4, much as the SU(2) group is related to SO(3). Arfken, and Weber. v/r, thanks,

well, i'm using a Evalution Version Maple .i spend one day time to find how can i change Maple to Document Mode but finally failed. May be Evalution Version doesn't have Work Mode and only have Document Mode? :(

I have a list of lists. The number of lists I have is unknown (though always a positive integer) and the number of elements in each list is unknown (though, again, always a positive integer). Some examples: [[2],[3]]; [[4],[4],[5,1]]; [[3,4,1],[2],[2],[6,7]]; I'd like to form a list of all possible sums formed from one element of each list. The lists of sums from the examples above would be [6]; [13,9]; [13,14,11,14,15,12]; The order doesn't matter, and repeated elements don't matter. I can form these lists when I can control the number of lists in the large list and write an explicit nest of for loops. I figure there's got to be a more elegant and powerful way of producing these sums.

Hi I've got 2 functions of a variable T [x(T) and z(T)] and a varying parameter u and i want to plot x(T) and z(T) against each other and show how the curve changes as u varies (hope that makes sense) how can i do that?

(I think this was posted in the wrong section of mapleprimes.) Hi, I have read the manual on saving to a file many times but it never works for me. I am using Maple 10 on a Mac running MacOS 10.4.10. I have copied the example from the manual and run that and it does work so I am quite confused. Here is what I would like to do: I have a worksheet with lots of definitions,equations, lists, etc. and I would like to have these available on another worksheet. I have tried > save nx; # nx is the name of my worksheet then > read nx; Error, unable to read `nx` I have the same problem with trying to save names e.g.

For the following function determine the x coordinates of the local minimum and the local maximum f(x)=9x+21/(x-13)
