I googled, read help and not able to find how to do this. 

I want to change the zoom in worksheet to any value I want, and not just 100%,150%,75%, etc.... which are the values that are listed in View->Zoom factor.

Is there a place one can type in the zoom value they want? Say 110% or any other number?

windows 10.

Thank you

I read a string from file which contains a sequence of Maple commands, all in one string. The commands are separated by ";" in the string. I need to then evaluate all the commands in the string as if I typed them one after the other. 

Here is an example

data:="x:='x';y:='y';sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=1,y(x));"; #read from database
parse(data);

Warning, extra characters at end of parsed string
x := 'x'
 

I want the result to parse to be as if I typed

x:='x'; 
y:='y'; 
sol:=dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=1,y(x));

I looked at help in parse page, but I do not see what I need to do. It says that 

If the option 'statement' is specified, the string must consist of exactly one Maple statement (which includes expressions). The statement is parsed and evaluated, and the result is returned.
 

But I am not using the statment option. I also tried using this option, no change, same problem.

Is there a way to prase such a string? 

Thanks

Is this documenation wrong?

https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/maple/view.aspx?path=Database%2fSQLite%2fFetchRow

It says that calling sequence is 

     FetchRow( statement, column, valuetype  )

But below it only shows 

With no column anywhere.  And none of examples show column in them.

And when I tried it by adding a column name that I know exist in my sqlite3 database, Maple gave an error that no such parameter allowed.  

Does FetchRow support column name or is the above just a documenation error?

Maple 2019

I have noticed a few times now with Maple 2019. It looses kernel connection when it is sitting there idly. This time I observed it. Had saved a document after an intensive calculation. The memory used was about 30Gig. shortly after saving the cpu fan was running hard. I checked task manager and cpu was cycling to 100%, it was mserever. Then the memory usage droped to about 6gig and message as shown. During this time Maple screen down in the LH corner displayed "Ready", so it didn't think it was doing anything.
 

My code below works but I an looking to speed it up to apply to large arrays. I have large integers and I want to store the exponent and first and last few digits.

nelems := 10;  ~ takes about 50mins when n=100,000,000
n := 374894756873546859847556;
op(n);
A := Array(1 .. 4, 1 .. nelems);
length(n);
st := time();
for i to nelems do
    A[1, i] := i^10*n;
    A[2, i] := length(A[1, i]) - 1;
    b := convert(A[1, i], string);
    A[3, i] := parse(b[1 .. 3]);
    A[4, i] := parse(b[-3 .. -1]);
end do;
time() - st;
A;
A[1, -2];
A[2, -2];
A[3, -2];
A[4, -2];

Hello,

How I can take variation from left-hand side of  5, and reach to right-hand side of  5. After by using integral by part obtained  7?

Thank you

Hello,

I´a currently making a school assigment, but i can´t get maple plots to combine the graphs i plot, when i plot multiple plots. (see picture) (the code is in the bottom of the question)

Hello Maple experts;

I am not able to understand why Maple 2019 can solve Laplace PDE in 2D Catersian on semi-infinite domain, when the infinity is along the Y direction, but not along the X direction, since the solution method is exactly the same.

Here is the code

restart;

#right one, Maple can not solve
pde := diff(u(x, y), x$2)+diff(u(x, y), y$2) = 0:
bc_left_edge := u(0, y) = 0:
bc_bottom_edge:= u(x, 0) = 0:
bc_top_edge:= u(x, 1) = A:
bc:=bc_left_edge ,bc_top_edge,bc_bottom_edge:
sol:=pdsolve([pde, bc],HINT = boundedseries(x = infinity)) assuming x>0,y>0;


#left one, Maple can solve
pde := diff(u(x, y), x$2)+diff(u(x, y), y$2) = 0:
bc_left_edge := u(0, y) = 0:
bc_bottom_edge:= u(x, 0) = 0:
bc_right_edge:= u(1, y) = A:
bc:=bc_left_edge ,bc_right_edge,bc_bottom_edge:
sol:=pdsolve([pde, bc],HINT = boundedseries(y = infinity)) assuming x>0,y>0;

Here is screen shot.

Maple can solve both cases if I remove the HINT. But the solution it gives is not as simple as using the HINT and contains unknown constants (_C5) that is why I use the HINT.

But the main question is, since both problems are exactly the same, why Maple can solve one and not the other when using the HINT? Is there something I am doing wrong? 

Maple 2019 on windows 10 and Physics cloud version 333.

Thank you

This is a minor issue, but I noticed using Maple 2019, with Physics cloud version 331 that it prints on the screen some results from internal computation on some calls to pdsolve

I have a ":" at the end of each command, so no output should go to the screen. In Maple 2018 this does not happen.

pde := a*diff(w(x,y),x) +  b*arctan(lambda*y)*diff(w(x,y),y) =  a*arctan(mu*x)^m+arctan(beta*y)^k:
sol := pdsolve(pde,w(x,y)):

#another example

pde := a*diff(w(x,y),x) +  b*arccot(lambda*y)*diff(w(x,y),y) =  a*arccot(mu*x)^m+arccot(beta*y)^k:
sol:=pdsolve(pde,w(x,y)):

Running the above on Maple 2019 and Maple 2018, here is screen shot. Notice the output in Maple 2019

In Maple 2019

Hi

The Physics Updates for Maple 2019 (current v.331 or higher) is already available for installation via MapleCloud. This version contains further improvements to the Maple 2019 capabilities for solving PDE & BC as well as to the tensor simplifier. To install these Updates,

• Open Maple,
• Click the MapleCloud icon in the upper-right corner to open the MapleCloud toolbar 
• In the MapleCloud toolbar, open Packages
• Find the Physics Updates package and click the install button, it is the last one under Actions
• To check for new versions of Physics Updates, click the MapleCloud icon. If the Updates icon has a red dot, click it to install the new version

Note that the first time you install the Updates in Maple 2019 you need to install them from Packages, even if in your copy of Maple 2018 you had already installed these Updates.

Also, at this moment you cannot use the MapleCloud to install the Physics Updates for Maple 2018. So, to install the last version of the Updates for Maple 2018, open Maple 2018 and enter PackageTools:-Install("5137472255164416", version = 329, overwrite)

Hi,

I have a private license of Maple 2018, and am interested in advances in terms of tensor calculus in Maple 2019, in particular concerning applications in general relativity. Three questions:

(1) Is there a way for me to buy the package without having to buy Maple 2019 in full, or would I have to upgrade?

(2) I have seen in the preview video that the features can for instance calculate the Christoffel symbols, the Rieman tensor, etc., from a prescribed metric in a coordinate basis, correct? Can the formalism also handle Expressions expressed in a non-coordinate frame though? So a frame field, for which the commutaror of the basis vector fields does not vanish?

(3) Is there somewhere a nice documentation, with exaples, where I can read on what I can do with the package? The documentation in the "what's new" section on the website is mainly concerned with applications for quantum mechanics, which is not what I am interested in.

Cheers!

If I create  and save a worksheet in Maple 2019, then try to up load it here, it uploads but contents won't display

No issue if I have an "identical" worksheet in Maple 2018.

See the attachment attempts below

I've always had problems installing Physics package from inside Maple.

I thought by buying Maple 2019 this problem will go away, but I am still not able to install this package.

I get this error

I am on windows 10 professional. Maple 2019 installed with no problems.

any suggestion to try (other what was suggeted in link at top, which is to manually download the physics package each time and update maple.ini to point to the new version)?

Is Physics package updated to work/install in Maple 2019 or does one need to wait few more days untill this happens?

Last year, I read a fascinating paper that presented evidence of an exoplanet, inferred through the “wobble” (or radial velocity) of the star it orbits, HD 3651. A periodogram of the radial velocity revealed the orbital period of the exoplanet – about 62.2 days.

I found the experimental data and attempted to reproduce the periodogram. However, the data was irregularly sampled, as is most astronomical data. This meant I couldn’t use the standard Fourier-based tools from the signal processing package.

I started hunting for the techniques used in the spectral analysis of irregularly sampled data, and found that the Lomb Scargle approach was often used for astronomical data. I threw together some simple prototype code and successfully reproduced the periodogram in the paper.

After some (not so) gentle prodding, Erik Postma’s team wrote their own, far faster and far more robust, implementation.

This new functionality makes its debut in Maple 2019 (and the final worksheet is here.)

From a simple germ of an idea, to a finished, robust, fully documented product that we can put in front of our users – that, for me, is incredibly satisfying.

That’s a minor story about a niche I’m interested in, but these stories are repeated time and time again.  Ideas spring from users and from those that work at Maplesoft. They’re filtered to a manageable set that we can work on. Some projects reach completion in under a year, while other, more ambitious, projects take longer.

The result is software developed by passionate people invested in their work, and used by passionate people in universities, industry and at home.

We always pack a lot into each release. Maple 2019 contains improvements for the most commonly used Maple functions that nearly everyone uses – such as solve, simplify and int – as well features that target specific groups (such as those that share my interest in signal processing!)

I’d like to to highlight a few new of the new features that I find particularly impressive, or have just caught my eye because they’re cool.

Of course, this is only a small selection of the shiny new stuff – everything is described in detail on the Maplesoft website.

Edgardo, research fellow at Maplesoft, recently sent me a recent independent comparison of Maple’s PDE solver versus those in Mathematica (in case you’re not aware, he’s the senior developer for that function). He was excited – this test suite demonstrated that Maple was far ahead of its closest competitor, both in the number of PDEs solved, and the time taken to return those solutions.

He’s spent another release cycle working on pdsolve – it’s now more powerful than before. Here’s a PDE that Maple now successfully solves.

Maplesoft tracks visits to our online help pages - simplify is well-inside the top-ten most visited pages. It’s one of those core functions that nearly everyone uses.

For this release, R&D has made many improvements to simplify. For example, Maple 2019 better simplifies expressions that contain powers, exponentials and trig functions.

Everyone who touches Maple uses the same programming language. You could be an engineer that’s batch processing some data, or a mathematical researcher prototyping a new algorithm – everyone codes in the same language.

Maple now supports C-style increment, decrement, and assignment operators, giving you more concise code.

We’ve made a number of improvements to the interface, including a redesigned start page. My favorite is the display of large data structures (or rtables).

You now see the header (that is, the top-left) of the data structure.

For an audio file, you see useful information about its contents.

I enjoy creating new and different types of visualizations using Maple's sandbox of flexible plots and plotting primitives.

Here’s a new feature that I’ll use regularly: given a name (and optionally a modifier), polygonbyname draws a variety of shapes.

In other breaking news, I now know what a Reuleaux hexagon looks like.

Since I can’t resist talking about another signal processing feature, FindPeakPoints locates the local peaks or valleys of a 1D data set. Several options let you filter out spurious peaks or valleys

I’ve used this new function to find the fundamental frequencies and harmonics of a violin note from its periodogram.

Speaking of passionate developers who are devoted to their work, Edgardo has written a new e-book that teaches you how to use tensor computations using Physics. You get this e-book when you install Maple 2019.

The new LeastTrimmedSquares command fits data to an equation while not being signficantly influenced by outliers.

In this example, we:

• Artifically generate a noisy data set with a few outliers, but with the underlying trend Y =5 X + 50
• Fit straight lines using CurveFitting:-LeastSquares and Statistics:-LeastTrimmedSquares

LeastTrimmedSquares function correctly predicts the underlying trend.

We try to make every release faster and more efficient. We sometimes target key changes in the core infrastructure that benefit all users (such as the parallel garbage collector in Maple 17). Other times, we focus on specific functions.

For this release, I’m particularly impressed by this improved benchmark for factor, in which we’re factoring a sparse multivariate polynomial.

On my laptop, Maple 2018 takes 4.2 seconds to compute and consumes 0.92 GiB of memory.

Maple 2019 takes a mere 0.27 seconds, and only needs 45 MiB of memory!

I’m a visualization nut, and I always get a vicarious thrill when I see a shiny new plot, or a well-presented application.

I was immediately drawn to this new Maple 2019 app – it illustrates the transition between day and night on a world map. You can even change the projection used to generate the map. Shiny!

So that’s my pick of the top new features in Maple 2019. Everyone here at Maplesoft would love to hear your comments!
