Here’s a sample session Graph plotting (using plot commands) Commands beginning with wxare appropriate for wxMaxima. End the session with the command quit();. End the session with the command quit();. End each Maxima command with a semicolon. Maxima is derived from the Macsyma system, developed at MIT in the years through as part of Project MAC Maxima can compute derivatives and integrals, expand in Taylor series, take limits, and obtain exact solutions to ordinary di erential equations. We begin by de ning the symbol Maxima is a version of the MIT-developed MACSYMA system, modified to run under CLISP. Maxima will display version information and a prompt. Maxima will display version information and a prompt. End the session with the End each MAXIMA command with a semicolon. Also note that the command depends(f,x) tells Maxima is a computer algebra system, implemented in Lisp. In other interfaces, use equivalent commands without the wxpre x. Example Plot the graph of a function over an interval wxplot2d(x^2, [x,0,1]); Plot the graphs of several functions over an interval wxplot2d([x^2, 2*x], [x,0,1]); Here’s a sample session: sonia$ maxima GCL (GNU Common Lisp) Click-off the graphical windows before continuing with the other commands in the Maxima Primer. Maxima quick reference guide All Maxima commands should end with either ;(which causes any output produced to be displayed) or $(which suppresses output) Start Maxima with the command maxima. Start Maxima with the command maxima. Figure You see Maxima has the quotient rule memorized in a somewhat different form than the one whichis optimal for humans. End each Maxima command with a semicolon. It is an inter active expert system and programming environment for symbolic and numerical mathematical manipulation 1 Introduction to Maxima. wxMaxima wxMaxima uses an interface as shown in Figure, below.
