How do I add Maple packages to the Extended Symbolic Math Toolbox?

I would like to add Maple packages to the Extended Symbolic Math Toolbox.

Answer 1

[MathWorks Support Team]

The procedure to add any package you wish to the Extended Symbolic Math Toolbox is as follows:

If you are using MATLAB R2016a or later, you can easily browse and find what you’re looking for using the Add-On Explorer. More information about the Add-On explorer can be found here:

https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab/add-on-explorer.html

If you are using MATLAB 2016 or earlier, please use the following:

1. Find the package of interest. For example, you can find many additional packages at the following website:

http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/

2. Extract the files in a directory (for example d:\work\MaplePackage\)

3. Run the following code in MATLAB:

maple('libname := "D:/work/MaplePackage", libname:')

 

At this point, if you run the code:

mhelp packageName

 

you will see a list of functions available in that particular package.

If you are using MATLAB R2016a or later, you can do this without leaving MATLAB.

Whether you need additional toolboxes, apps, hardware support packages, or community submissions, you can easily browse and find what you’re looking for using the Add-On Explorer. Learn more here.

Add-ons extend the capabilities of MATLAB. Find add-ons for your task, no matter what you’re working on.

Try searching for "Maple"!
