Now we have three parameters: y, X, and T. Maple can give a parametric numeric solution, but in order to plot anything we'll need specific values for the parameters.

Also, you've used both x and t to represent the independent variable. That makes no difference to Maple, but it is sloppiness that makes your material more confusing for a human to read. Finally, y, X, and T are unusual letters to use to represent parameters. Again, it makes no difference to Maple, but without some context for why those letters are used, it causes confusion for the reader.

@arctica1963 I'm sorry that I wasn't more specific about restart. Put the restart at the beginning of your document. It's a good idea to start all computations with restart, which erases all user-defined values from memory. It's like the "all clear" button on a pocket calculator. See ?restart. Where you have the restart now is erasing everything you just defined right before you try to plot it.

Let me know how it goes. I got the plot that you expect, except that the horizontal axis is from 0 to 512. Get the plot first, then we can rescale the axis.

In this case. the data are evenly spaced in both independent-variable dimensions, so the Matrix/GRID form of surfdata is more convenient than the listlist/MESH form.

Joe (and other experienced debuggers),

Try Inert:= ToInert(eval(soltn)). The result looks like the normal inert form of a procedure result from dsolve. Now do FromInert(Inert). The result is the literal symbol `invalid character in short integer encoding 70 F`.

The result is quite different if you use disassemble(eval(soltn)). Then you get an actual error message rather than a symbol: "Error, (in unspecified) Non-fatal error when reading data from kernel."

@emma hassan You must select float[8](64-bit). Do not use the 32-bit.

Please upload a copy of the text file, after you've editted out the top row and left column, so that I can investigate. You must also edit out any blank lines.

@emma hassan When it asks you select the format of the file, choose "Delimited". On the next screen, select the default "Tab separated". On the next screen, select "float[8](64-bit)" (regardless of whether your proessor, OS, or Maple version are 64- or 32-bit).

I said use ImportData(). Your worksheet attempts to use ImportMatrix.

I cut-and-paste your data from your original post into a blank Microsoft Notepad document. Then I editted out the extraneous info, like the top row and the left column. I saved the document, then used Maple's ImportData() command and just followed the interactive directions.
