Maple

Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

After some annoyance, and coughing up £151, I now have Maple on here to play around with. And to do maths microlab exercises, of course.

As much as the weird syntax (and Swing GUI) is annoying, it’s still fun to play around with. Being able to right-click an equation and integrate, differentiate, solve, or do whatever else to it is the most wonderful thing ever.

Since I don’t really know my way around it2 I can’t really say much about it yet, but yay, new toy.

  1. Which is of course better than having to pay about £50, but still. 

  2. There were six microlab sessions last year which took about half an hour each, and that’s the only exposure I’ve had to it.
