The following table contains links to several of my projects, notes, scribbles, etc. They were generated with Maple version V release 5. Available for each are PDF, Maple-generated HTML, and the Maple worksheet. The date shown is that of the most recent significant content change in the Maple worksheet. The PDF files are optimized for "print" resolution; hence lines in plots appear very thin on screen, but they print okay.

Here are the most-used utility procedures that I've written. The startup, utils, plotting, curves, polynomials, and ODEs collections are implemented as Maple packages. The "library" links are the corresponding Maple libraries (*.m files). If you put them on your Maple path (using the libname command), then you can load these packages with the "with" command. For example,

    libname := "c:/maple/utils/", libname:
    with(utils):

You will need Maple version V release 5 to use these, although converting to release 4 is trivial, so don't be discouraged if you have release 4 or release 3. Also included are my "format styles" file and a copy of my maple.ini file so you can make sense of my aliases and file path macros.

Note: source code is formatted assuming tab size = 4 characters (not 8). Hence, the layout will look crappy in your browser. The Maple library files are .m binary files. Shift-click to download the file(s) to your hard disk.
