STeM is a large INTERACTIVE Maple package and I need to allow the user to make decisions (like factor choices etc) at intermediate places in long computations. The problem is that in such long computations the "readstat" output goes below the visible screen and hence the user cannot see all the choices as they are requested before the end at which of course then it all pops up. As a very simple example consider the one line code
 
for i from 1 to 100 do x[i]:=readstat("pick a value for x: ");od;
 
After some entries the little window from readstat is visible but you cannot see the selections that you are inputing  for x[i] BEFORE termination. My problem is more complicated than this but this is the essence of it. I need to see all 100 outputs from "readstat" as you proceed in the loop. Is there a work-around or do I need to use a Maplet or whatever? If you cannot assist me, can you please indicate who can help me solve my problem. Thanks

Hello

In my last question, I asked for help converting an old Maple V3 code to the latest version. With the help of  @Rouben Rostamian, I managed to get most of the procedures working again. Unfortunately, there is one procedure that I cannot figure out how to convert. Below is the procedure, along with an example that works and one that does not.

saturbasis := proc(ps,js,ord)
 local qs,gb,zz,j,aux;
     print("ps = ",ps):
     print("js = ",js):
	 print("ord = ",ord):
     if js <> {} then
         qs := [op(ps),'`@z`.j*js[j]-1' $ ('j' = 1 .. nops(js))];print("qs = ",%):
         zz := ['`@z`.(nops(js)-j+1)' $ ('j' = 1 .. nops(js))];print("zz = ",%):
         aux:= [op(zz),'ord[nops(ord)-j+1]' $ ('j' = 1 .. nops(ord))]:print("aux = ",aux):
         gb := grobner['gbasis'](qs,aux,'plex');
         qs := [];
         for j to nops(gb) do
             if {op(zz)} minus indets(gb[j]) = {op(zz)} then
                 qs := [gb[j],op(qs)]
             fi
         od
     else qs := ps
     fi;
     qs
end proc:

First example:

ps:=[2*x1^2 + 3*x2^2 + 4*x1 + x2, x1*x3 - 3*x2 - 1, 2*x1*x4 + 3*x2 + 1]:
js:={x1}:
ord:=[x1, x2, x3, x4]:

saturbasis(ps,js,ord);
             [    2       2                                
    "ps = ", [2 x1  + 3 x2  + 4 x1 + x2, x1 x3 - 3 x2 - 1, 

                        ]
      2 x1 x4 + 3 x2 + 1]


                         "js = ", {x1}

                   "ord = ", [x1, x2, x3, x4]

             [    2       2                                
    "qs = ", [2 x1  + 3 x2  + 4 x1 + x2, x1 x3 - 3 x2 - 1, 

                                   ]
      2 x1 x4 + 3 x2 + 1, @z x1 - 1]


                         "zz = ", [@z]

                 "aux = ", [@z, x4, x3, x2, x1]

           ]

Second example:

ps:=[2*x1*x4^2 + 3*x1 + x4 + 6, x3*x4^3 + 2*x4^4 - 9*x3 - 18*x4, 2*x2*x4^2 + 3*x2 - 4*x4 + 1]:
js:={2*x4^2 + 3, x4^3 - 9}:
ord:={2*x4^2 + 3, x4^3 - 9}:

saturbasis(ps,js,ord);
           [       2                  
  "ps = ", [2 x1 x4  + 3 x1 + x4 + 6, 

         3       4                        2                  ]
    x3 x4  + 2 x4  - 9 x3 - 18 x4, 2 x2 x4  + 3 x2 - 4 x4 + 1]

Warning, grobner[gbasis] is deprecated. Please, use Groebner[Basis].
Error, (in grobner:-gbasis) invalid input: Groebner:-Basis expects its 2nd argument, tord1, to be of type Or(ShortMonomialOrder,name,MonomialOrder), but received plex(2*`@z`,`@z`,x4^3-9,2*x4^2+3)

I suppose that the "." is no longer used as it was back in Maple V3, and it seems that the author of the procedure was creating extra auxiliary variables to solve the problem.


What did the author use @ for creating the variables?  And how to fix the error?

Many thanks
 

I need to seperate vectors  from projective geometry vectors in my package. I am experimenting with using row and column matrices for projective points and lines reppresentation. Two approaches are use here. The 1st converts the Matrices to Vectors and back in the procedure. I dont like that way. The 2nd approach, I worked out the equivalent of CrossProduct and DotProduct for the row and column matrices. That I think is better.

1st Question are there any other approaches worth looking at?Is there something in the Physics package that could be of use?

2nd Qusetion could a new data type be made with the properties of a vector that could be displayed differently.?

Say, for a point [ x : y : z ] and a line < x : y : z >, because projecive quantities as basically ratios..

What are the best techniques/tools/functions for rendering tabular data in more human-friendly ways within the Maple graphical user interface?

I work with large tables that would be too long to render completely in the interface, and doing so would not be an effective way to represent the data to readers of a Maple Document. However, rendering subsets of the data with headers, captions, colors, and footnotes would be beneficial. It would also be helpful to ensure each data type, such as dates, integers, and strings, was rendered appropriately. Ideally, the table would be rendered with sizing to fit the data rather than always the full width of the Maple Document.

Subsetting the data seems to be straightforward by indexing against the underlying variable. However, the operations available to define the rendering are unclear.

I see that the "Maple 2024 Help" includes documentation for "DocumentTools,Layout,Table." This appears to be the function to focus on specifically, and the DocumentTools Package seems to be the Package where control over layout is provided. Is this the only Package and Function to focus on, or are there alternative techniques?

There's no advanced search in the application center.

If I search for Maple 10 I get a total of 3 applications - I know there's at least a couple hundred maple 10 applications.  

How do I search for all Maple 10 applications?

Dear maple user i have a partial differential equation whose first approximation solution is w(r,z)=(r^2-h^2)/4 , i want to calculate the two approximations. I am attaching the file please see

Hello

I need to use the Ritt algorithm to find the characteristic sets of a set of differential equations. In the past, it seems there was a Maple package by D. Wang available through Maple Applications, but this no longer appears to be the case. I managed to download an old set of files from the author’s site, dated February 1996, which is a Maple V3 package. The instructions in the Readme file mention that using the provided Makefile, an m-file containing all the functions will be created, which can then be loaded into Maple. Unfortunately, running make -f Makefile did not create anything, so I am wondering if I could get some assistance on how to convert this package to something compatible with the latest Maple releases.

The source (txt) files are structured as follows:

Example: 


1) Comments
2) Definition of the User functions - something like

 

dcharsets[dcharset] := proc() `charsets/d_charset`(args) end:

dcharsets[dmcharset] := proc() `charsets/d_mcharset`(args) end:

dcharsets[dcs] := proc() `charsets/d_charser`(args) end:

dcharsets[dmcs] := proc() `charsets/d_mcs`(args) end:

dcharsets[dics] := proc() `charsets/d_ics`(args) end:

and

read `charsets.m`:

# set of non-zero remainders of d-polys in ps wrt d-ascending set as
#       user level function
`charsets/d_remset` :=

subs(`charsets/class`=`charsets/d_class`,
     `charsets/remseta`=`charsets/d_remseta`,
     `charsets/premas`=`charsets/d_premas`,op(`charsets/remset`)):

and lots of Maple procedures - Example below

 

`charsets/d_charset` := proc(ps,lst,medset)

....

end:

the source file ends with the following lines.

read dhelp;
save `dcharsets.m`:
quit

Many thanks

Hi,
 i observe this error as if a sum() was used instead of a add() in dsolve

> assume(g > 0): dsolve({diff(r(t), t$2) + g * t * r(t), r(0) = r0, D(r)(0) = r1},  r(t));
Error, (in dsolve) unsupported type of index, _a

any help or advice, please ?

Sincerely.

when i do the convert in maple to latex  is do but not fully simplify and some kind of clearer must write for paper and i must do this case by case by hand but how i can simplify before i convert to latex and remove all extra thing like multiply between two squar root

How do I stop truncation in Maple 2023?  Everything was working fine yesterday but today all of a sudden all assignments are truncated to only 10 digits.

If:

with(Units) :

a_Terra := 149598023.*Unit(km) :
A_Luna := 0.136 :
L_Sol := 3.75E28*Unit(lm) :
S_sphere := r -> 4*Pi*r^2 :

J_Luna := A_Luna*L_Sol/S_sphere(a_Terra) :

Then:

"" gives ""

but

"" gives ""

"" without "evalf" also provides a truncated number instead of showing the "Pi" for an exact value.  So something is wrong in the assignment settings.

Somehow the settings must have changed for how assignments are stored. The answer is irrational with a factor of "1/Pi" and so should not be truncated for calculations.  "a_Terra" is assigned with 9 significant digits ("" km) which I am wondering if maybe why "evalf" is truncating to 10 digits (though it should round and not truncate in that case) but it wasn't doing this before.

"Tools --> Options --> Precision" hasn't changed is set globally to round screen display to 32 decimal places and to round calculation to 64 significant digits.

I do not think I ever saw this warning messages from dsolve. This is _Clairaut first order ode. When adding the option singsol=all in the dsolve call, Maple replies with 

I do not have earlier version of Maple to try as my C: drive died and lost all my Maple's installed versions. I need to to try to install older version of Maple sometime and check.

Is this new warning and why does it show? Is this suppose to happen?

I also noticed these warning messages show up only the first time dsolve is called on this ode.

Calling it again right after, using the same command, the warning messages no longer show up, which is  even more strange.

 

I'm looking for a comprehensive ebook on mathematical modeling, specificaly focused on dynamical systems and how to use Maple for simulations and analysis. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good resource or textbook that covers these topics thoroughly?

I noticed very serious problem in Maple 2024.1

This is new windows 10  22H2  installation. With Maple 2024.1. I've only seen this using Maple and no other windows applications. I have 2 monitors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card.

What happens is that sometimes (may be 2-3 times each day), Maple frontend gets all mangled up. I could not figure what causes it. it could be when I move the window from one terminal to the other. sometimes it happens when I open a debugger window.

Only way to fix this is to close all of Maple and start it again. 

Just wondering if anyone seen anything like this and what can cause it. Again, it is only Maple that shows this problem, no other windows application does this. Have 128 GB Ram and PC is only 2 years old.

This is the very first time I see this in Maple and used Maple for long time and on this same PC before and had two terminals also before all the time. I have no idea what causes it.

Could it be Java problem in Maple 2024.1 ?
