Packages of Library Functions
Specialized libraries, or "packages," can be used through the Extended Toolbox. These packages include:
- Combinatorial Functions
- Differential Equation Tools
- Differential Forms
- Domains of Computation
- Euclidean Geometry
- Gaussian Integers
- Gröbner Bases
- Permutation and Finitely Presented Groups
- Lie Symmetries
- Boolean Logic
- Graph Networks
- Newman-Penrose Formalism
- Number Theory
- Numerical Approximation
- Orthogonal Polynomials
- p-adic Numbers
- Formal Power Series
- Projective Geometry
- Simplex Linear Optimization
- Statistics
- Total Orders on Names
- Galois Fields
- Linear Recurrence Relation Tools
- Financial Mathematics
- Rational Generating Functions
- Tensor Computations
You can use the Maple with
command to load these packages. Say, for example, that you want to use the orthogonal polynomials package. First get the Maple name of this package, using the statement
mhelp index[packages]
which returns
HELP FOR: Index of descriptions for packages of library functions
SYNOPSIS:
- The following packages are available:
...
orthopoly: orthogonal polynomials
...
You can then can access information about the package
mhelp orthopoly
To load the package, type
maple('with(orthopoly);')
This returns
ans =
[G, H, L, P, T, U]
which is a listing of function names in the orthopoly
package. These functions are now loaded in the Maple workspace, and you can use them as you would any regular Maple function.
