I have a degree in Mathematics and Physics from the Danish University Aarhus, comparable to a masters degree with thesis - majoring in Mathematics. In 1991-92 I was a visting scholar at UCLA, Los Angeles, following graduate courses in Applied Mathematics. Since 1992 I have been a teacher in a high school (gymnasium) in Denmark. Special interests: Applied mathematics, graphics and popularizing Mathematics.

Dear Maple users

I have been looking for the list of fonts used by Maple, but couldn't find it. Can someone refer me to it? I am installing lots of programs on a new computer, and since some of them are graphics programs, I get a load of fonts thrown in my Windows Font folder. Therefore it is my intention to remove a lot of the unnecessary fonts. But I don't want to remove the ones used my Maple, so I will...

Dear Maple users

Many problems in mathematicis can be traced back to solving equations. It is at the heart of a program like Maple. I know solving equations in general can be immensely difficult. As an example The Riemann hypothesis has to do with the solution of a specific equation, the Riemann zeta function, and is probably the most famous unsolved problem today. I just mention this one to emphasize how hard it can be to solve an equation. Therefore I know...

Dear Maple users

I have encountered a strange problem when trying to make inline evaluations in Document Mode. The shortcut Ctrl+= does work on my stationary Windows XP machine, but does not work on my notebook running Windows 7 (64 bit).

To make it clear: I change to Math Mode using the F5 key, type the expression and hold Ctrl and Shift key down and press the key with the = sign. And Yes, I am using Document Mode!

When I rightclick in order to use...

Dear Maple Users

I was looking forward to having the Units package improved in Maple 15. Units are indeed converted to SI Units when direct calculations are made. It is a disappointment though that this conversion doesn't occur when solving equations as the example below show:

 

Unfortunately Maplesoft mix up their announcements for news in version 15 of Maple with...

Dear Maple users

I know how to create an animation of a sine curve moving over time (t) on an x-axis to simulate a moving wave. In the help menu under the topic plots,animation it is explained how to animate a ball moving along some curve. How do I combine those two animations into one? The ball is moving along a curve completely different from the sine curve!
