Problem: I have two polynomials with arbitrary coefficients. I set them both to 0 and I used the 'map' , as well as 'coeffs' command to make the coefficients equal to 0.

Now for some reason, Maple does not print in order for one of the polynomials and it does for the other.

 

Note that 'order' refers to the coefficients attached to the powers of the variable.

 

Quick example: (this one actually works on Maple, but just not the one I have)

 

e1:= ax + (b + c)x^2 = 0

e2:= (c + d)x + (a + c)x^3 = 0

 

After applying map and coeff, one expects it to output

 

a = 0, (c + d) = 0, (b + c)=0, (a + c) = 0

 

instead I got

 

a = 0, (c + d) = 0, (a + c) = 0,(b + c)=0
