Hi Stephanie,

 i know about the cad link, but i don't see how this helps  to export 3d data to solidworks. As far as i understand, it just offers some control elements, but  perhaps  you know more about it. If this package can do the job, then there should definately be some better examples in ?cad,solidworks

I just have to pass this info to a customer, i guess he can't blame me if it doesn't work.

Thanks alec

@edgar: This is an excellent hint.

Thanks

ok, a simple for loop is much faster, i see. But in which case would it be recomended to use rsolve,makeproc ?

Hi,

it is really a bad idea to fall back to an outdated release just because you heard some talk. Btw if you have Windows Vista, there's no guarantee Maple 11.0 will work with it.

Hi, i cannot see how a function can have this property. Do you refer to the hessian matrix, which is derived from a given function ? check ?isdefinite

Some useful info here. I didn't know the environment variable Rounding. Pi was just an example, so there is no need for me to analyse specialized algorithms yet. Picking up the last digit(s) with the mod command is a thing i'll keep in mind. To get the first digit of a number, i have to take the iquo command, right ? 

Thanks

It seems the BBP formula is well known for about 15 years. I'm  wondering why it isn't implemented into Maple yet ( or is it ?).

Thomas

Thanks for the tip Axel, i'll look into it.

Hi, you should add G to your display command.

try this:

restart:

assume(a>0,b>0,c<0);

L := [-a,-2,-b,1,c,3,4];

select(x->signum(x)=-1, L);

@Paulina: It works now, no need to investigate further. But maybe you have a hint for me, why the following code snippets deliver different results:

mycolors := ["Orange", "Red", "Yellow", "White"]:convert(mycolors[1],colorRGB);

COLOR(RGB, 1.00000000, .64705882, 0.)

convert(orange,colorRGB);

COLOR(RGB, .80000000, .19607843, .19607843)

The last one is taken from the Advanced Programming Guide, "Creating a Chess Board Plot", p. 315 .

Thanks

Hi Paulina, i'm interested in your way of doing this.

But your code gives me the following error :

Plotting error, incorrect Array size for RGB/HSV COLOUR data

Pls debug

 EDIT: nvm, it only works in standard worksheet, not in classic.
