Dear all,

In the attached file there seems to be a little calculation bug.

Simply let the file run through. In the fourth line from the bottom CSBt equals a number greater than zero. I copied the same expression in the file's very last line. There the result of CSBt is zero.

The identical expression gives two different results. The "correct" result is zero.

It seems to me that the file is somehow damaged. Has this happened to anyone before and what can you do about it?

Many thanks for your help!!

Dear all, In the attached file I try to solve expression Y for p. As Y includes dCS(p)/dp, the solve command produces an error message. I do understand that Y can't be solved for p since expression dCS(p)/dp is not fully defined. However, the result I am aiming for is simply: p = -(1/2)*(dCS(p)/dp) (with p simply being a funtion of dCS(p)/dp) Which command leads to this result? I haven't found it in the help section. Many thanks for your help! Florian View 5919_Question_solve

Dear all! In the attached document X is a function in p and F. Solving X for F returns three possible solutions in p. When I put p=6 all three solutions contain complex numbers. However, when I put p=6 at the very top of the file, transforming X into a function of only F, Maple finds two possible solutions for F both without complex numbers (11.1 and 3371.9, whereas 11.1 is the "right one"). How come that Maple doesn't yield the same results when I define p=6 later in the file? I'd be very greatful for any suggestions and help! Best regards, Florian

Dear all! I don't use Maple very regularly and have come across the following error message: "Error, (in content/polynom) general case of floats not handled" This error message occurs when I try to differentiate a fairly simple function of one variable and various constants. The curious thing is the following (and that's probably crucial to the problem): when the constant d equals 1 (see attached file), Maple does the derivation without any problems. As soon as it is a decimal number (e.g. 0.9) the error message occurs (note: d is always smaller or equal to 1). Plus, when d is a decimal number all functions in my worksheet increase considerably in size. Maple doesn't seem to fully simplify them. I guess, this is the source of the problem.
