MaplePrimes Questions

I have a fairly simple integral that I'm trying to complete in Maple and keep having to go to Mathcad to get an answer that I can use. This is just one example of many times this has happened and I'm wondering if maybe I'm entering something wrong or if there is a better way to do it. int( (x^2 + 1)^3/2, x=0..1); The answer coming back from Maple is really long, where the answer coming from Mathcad is really short. Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong? Thanks, glenn
Hi, I'm new at Maple, trying to migrate from Mathcad but I'm getting stuck on a basic problem. I want Maple to find numeric solutions to a maximization problem and express the solution as a function of the problem's parameters. To take a very simple example of the more general thing I want to do, suppose I have a profit function which is a function of inputs T and L and factor prices w and r. F:=(T,L)->T^(1/2)*L^(4/5); Profit := (T, L, w, r) -> F(T, L)-w*L-r*T; I seem to be able to almost isolate the parameterized functions I want as follows:
Can someone help me with the Dagger command in the Physics package ? I can't seem to get it to work for matrices. thanks,
I'm just learning to write Maplets for the purpose of using them as a teaching tool. Two questions: 1. I'd like to have a slider that updates a plot argument AND plays the plot's animation but I can't seem to figure out how to write two controls into the slider's options. (I've tried "Action(Evaluate...,SetOption...) to no avail. 2. Is it possible to have the location of the slider read in 'real-time' i.e. as the user moves the slider back and forth a feature in a plot changes? It seems as if the 'onchange' option is required but I can't seem to get this going either. Cheers, Co
I am trying to find a simple way to convert an expression in D notation to the corresponding expression in Diff notation. In particular I am interested in expressions, such as -D[1](f)(x-y,z-y)-D[2](f)(x-y,z-y), which should become Diff(f(x-y,z-y),y). Can maple handle this?
I am trying to produce a publication-quality graph. The graph consists of several curves and is a combination (using the display command) of some output from plot and odeplot. I have uploaded the Maple 10 worksheet, plotFig1.mw, that produces the graph so that others can see what I've done. I have also uploaded plotFig1.eps, the encapsulated postscript file that contains the graph exported from the final graphic in this worksheet. I have tried different possibilities but am still disappointed with the quality of the curves produced, especially the "aliasing" (zigzagging horizontal and vertical line segments that poorly simulate smoothness) near the maxima of these curves.

I'm glad to see the dot operator and I'm trying to get around some limitations since it doesn't understand general matrices and vectors. Consider the expression T(g(a)).h(a). In my case, T is a transpose operation and a is a vector. I'm trying to differentiate it with respect to a. The general derivative is of the form, T(h(a)).diff(g(a),a) + T(g(a)).diff(h(a),a). My question is how to get Maple to understand how to apply this particular derivative rule. If I just blindly apply the derivative, I get the second term fine, but the first term is not in a useful form. Basically, I need to tell diff how to carry out the product rule for these non-commutative terms.
What is the fastest code for integer dot product in Maple ? I am currently using the inner command, however there seems to be a lot of overhead. It is easily slaughtered by GMP. I was wondering if there is a dedicated external routine or something else that I can call ? I want to avoid linking in a C library just for this. On a related note, I think Maplesoft should develop a companion to the LinearAlgebra:-Modular package that supports fast operations with dense integer matrices in compiled code. I know the LinBox library supports this, maybe it could be linked in ? I actually don't
In the attached file I have a variable RT_FR which appears in the system equation a1. Download 2129_forMaple(RT_FR).mws
View file details If I do the following (mb,tr,Ic are parameters) >RT_FR:=0: > a1 := -(PSX*sin(s1)*tr-RT_FR+mb*tr*vHn*v1)/(mb*tr^2+Ic); a1 := -11.64824973 vHn v1 then the numerical procedure - RT_FR is declared global - which is called by odeplot behaves exactly as it should. However if I do the following

I assigned d as 10t like this- d:=10t How do I "unassign" d? I tried the unassign command and got this: Error, (in unassign) cannot unassign `10*t' (argument must be assignable) 10 t How do I get rid of/clear/unassign what I assigned to d?
Hello all, I know several people around my university that have had this problem so I finally thought I should ask: Lets say I have some complicated integral, the integrand is a function of several variables. If I: 1)simply evaluate it and I get some function of the remaining variables. 2)try to assign it such as A:=(x,y,z)-> integral, I get A(x,y,z)=integral what I want is to first evaluate to a function and then assign that function as some name as a function of the remaining variables. I know this must be possible, but I can't seem to get it. Thanks for the help. (I can provid
I am having a lot of trouble converting my LaTeX files to .qu with a wide variety of problems. The first one is a successful conversion but instead of an [OK] I get the message "Error Handling". LaTeX3.qu: Error handling In being fed up with the converter, I added questions and converted them one at a time. The problem is with this particular question, text below: Download 5024_LaTeX3.tex
