In the student part of maple 10, it says: " More than just the answer Maple 10, in addition to providing the answer, also displays all the required steps and the “thinking” behind the math problems you are facing." But I can't see anywhere in the program where this is available. Put something in and all it does is give you a final answer: One simple example: solve(y^2 = (x(x+1))/2); just gets you the final answer
