Some calculus problems are worked out with the differential formatted as a function prime (f', G', etc.). How do I enter a function with the prime symbol so that Maple will treat it consistently? I recall entering f'(x) once in the legend of a Plot. The legend, as output, was in 2D format d/dx(f(x).

Another variation on my question is this: If I enter diff(x^2,x), or d/dx x^2 in 2D Maple, and calculate, I get 2x. If there a way to enter f'(x^2) to get the derivative?

Working in Calculus Study Guide which uses EpsilonDelta maplet in examples and problems. Study Guide says to enter epsilon and delta values in fields at right, or to use sliders. Sliders function for rough work. However, fields displaying vlalues are grayed out and do not accept entries. Difficult using sliders to get precise small values. Is this a program error or something I am overlooking? Thx.

I want to plot y=f(x) where f(x) may be in the form: f(x) = kx... I need to supply several values, or parameters, for the constant k. For example, k=2,4,8,10. If I can get someone's help on this plotting question, I think I'll be on my way to figuring out other issues using the Mable Help menus. I'm a self-study student, so I don't have a professor to check with. Thx. (I realize this is extremely simple)
