Hellow

I want to create a function that sort an array with a parametric variable alpha[k]. But Maple ignores the sort command, so the array never gets sorted. Please see attached url to creen capture of the problem:

Hello

How can I set the range (bounds) of all of the function's variables to the same range at once? Here is a simple exaple:

Input:

Minimize((x[1]-1)^2+(x[2]-1)^2+(x[3]-1)^2, {8 <= x[1]*(x[2]^2+x[3]^2+1)}, x[1] = 1 .. 2, x[2] = 1 .. 2, x[3] = 1 .. 2);
     

Results:

[0.693290283715211841, [x[1] = 1.53166579937811,  x[2] = 1.45311243719790, x[3] = 1.45311243719790]]
 

My function have 15 variables x[1] -> x[15]. How can I set their bounds to a global range, say: x[i]=1..2 ?

I'm using Maple 17.3 at work.

Thanks, and sorry for the bad English.

Hello

Please have a look at the attached picture. I create an expression, hit enter, then Maple auto simplifies it causing a mess. How do i prevent Maple from manipulating expressions?

Thanks

Hello

I've written a completely symbolic expression involving sum function. When I hit enter, Maple 2016.2 evaluates the expression although it's completely symbolic and not evaluable.

How to stop Maple from falsely evaluating a symbolic expression? I dis use the restart command to make sure all variables are empty. When evaluating Maple generate a very large open form expression that makes no mathematical sense.

Please advice

Thanks
