Maple Rank Package - Installation Instructions

These instructions are for Windows and Maple 13. If you are using a different version of Maple just change "13" to whatever.
  • STEP 1
    Create a directory for your maple lib (dotm) files.
    My directory is called mylib and is under the Maple 13 directory.
    This is what I did to create it:
    • Click Start
    • Click Run
    •  cd c:\"Program Files"\"Maple 13" 
    •  mkdir mylib
    You should now have a new directory called mylib.
  • STEP 2
    Set up a maple.ini file. This file is created in the Users subdirectory and contains the following lines:
    Homelib:="C:\\Program Files\\Maple 13/mylib":
    libname := libname, Homelib:
    
    Continuing from above we could do the following in the cmd window:
        cd Users
        echo Homelib:="C:\\Program Files\\Maple 13/mylib": > maple.ini 
        echo libname := libname, Homelib: >> maple.ini
    
    Now you should have a file maple.ini containing two lines of code.
  • STEP 3
    Download the file This file contains MAPLE code for setting up and saving the package. Save this file in a place where you keep your MAPLE programs. I saved it in a special directory:
    "C:\cygwin\home\fgarvan\maple\mypackages\rank\w-setup"
    
    This program saves the rank package on the mylib directory. If you want to save it in a different place you will need to edit the file.
  • STEP 4
    Install the rank package. Start MAPLE and do something like the following.
    > currentdir("C:\\cygwin\\HOME\\fgarvan\\maple\\mypackages\\rank\\w-setup");
                 "C:\cygwin\home\fgarvan\maple\mypackages\rank\w-setup"
    > currentdir();
    >            "C:\cygwin\home\fgarvan\maple\mypackages\rank\w-setup"
    > LLN:=500:
    > read "RANKPROG13":
    
    You will need to change "C:....w-setup" to the appropriate place.
    This program computes N(m,n) for n up to 500 and saves this table of rank values and the package as a file rank.m in the mylib dir. See
  • STEP 5
    Exit MAPLE and restart it to test the package:
    > with(rank);
        [N, rankgen, rankgentop, ranknum, rankresgen, rankresgenb, rankresnum, 
          rankresnumb, ranktablemake]
    > seq(N(r,5,4),r=0..2);
                                        1, 1, 1
    > seq(N(r,7,5),r=0..3);
                                      1, 1, 1, 1
    > seq(N(r,11,6),r=0..5);
                                   1, 2, 1, 1, 0, 1
    > modp(1/24,35);
                                          19
    > modp(500,35);
                                          10
    > 500+9-35;
                                          474
    > seq(N(r,5,474),r=0..2);
          107013935070321452425, 107013935070321452425, 107013935070321452425
    > seq(N(r,7,474),r=0..3);
          76438525050229608875, 76438525050229608875, 76438525050229608875,
