Programming
In
addition
to the new code
edit region and start-up
code region,
several other
changes have
been made
to enhance
the programming
tools for
Maple 12.
- Improved
syntax for
entering
and indexing
arrays, vectors,
and matrices
combines
convenient
notation
with efficient
operation.
- New, simple notation provides the
ability to grow arrays past their endpoints in a
memory-efficient way.
- The zip command
now accepts an option indicating whether the zeros
in sparse objects should be ignored or included.
- More flexible max and min commands
now accept a broader variety of data types as arguments.
- Implicit range endpoints are now
supported for arrays, lists, sets, sequences, and
strings, providing a simpler syntax for specifying
all or part of the object. For example, A[..n] references
the first n elements of A.
- The new Bits package
provides efficient bit-wise operations in Maple.
