89.1 Introduction
Maple® is a general purpose computational system offering symbolic computation, exact and approximate (floating-point) numerical computation, and scientific plotting and graphics. The main Maple library is written in the Maple programming language, a rich language that allows easy access to advanced mathematical algorithms. A special feature of Maple is access for users to much of the library source code, including the ability to trace Maple’s own execution; the only parts of Maple that cannot be traced are those parts that are compiled, for example, the kernel. Users can also link to LAPACK ...
