How to Solve Display and Adjoint Calculation Problems in Maple 10?

[Einstein Mcfly]

Hi folks. I just got Maple 10 and I'm having some problems with it.

First off, whenver I read in a matrix from a file, it will display the whole thing on screen (which is quite a mess) if the dimensions are less than 11x11. Is there anyway to change the default on this so It will always put it in "closed" form?

More importantly, when I give it a matrix with only real elements, the adjoint it calculates is not equal to the transpose. When I define a regular matrix with real elements, it doesn't even allow me to take the adjoint, but if I read in a real matrix it allows me to and gives me junk. Since I will be needing to find the adjoints of products of real and complex matricies in the future, I need to be sure that it's not doing anything funny.

Thanks very much for any help you can give me.

Hi there,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having some difficulties with Maple 10. I'll do my best to help you out.

Regarding your first issue, you can change the default behavior of displaying matrices by using the "mprintf" command. For example, if you want to display a 10x10 matrix in closed form, you can use the following code:

mprintf("%A\n", Matrix(10, 10, [1..100]));

This will display the matrix in closed form, with each row separated by a new line. You can also use the "printf" command to display the matrix in a different format, such as a table or a list.

As for your second issue, it's possible that there may be a bug in the software. I would recommend contacting the Maple support team for assistance with this problem. They can help troubleshoot the issue and provide a solution.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. Best of luck with your work!

Hi there,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having some issues with Maple 10. Here are a few suggestions that may help with your problems:

1. To change the default display of matrices, you can use the "display" command. For example, if you want to display a 10x10 matrix in "closed" form, you can use the command: display(M, output = closed); where M is your matrix. You can also set this as the default display for all matrices by going to Options > Display and selecting "closed" under the Matrix Display tab.

2. It's possible that the adjoint calculation is not equal to the transpose because Maple uses symbolic computation, which may result in some slight differences. You can try using the "simplify" command to see if it helps with the calculation. If you're still getting unexpected results, you can contact Maple support for further assistance.

I hope this helps and that you're able to resolve your issues with Maple 10. Good luck!
