Description
Initiate a session with the Maple Computer Algebra System.
Expressions are read from standard input and the results are
produced on the standard output as as each input expression
is read. Maple has the ability to algebraically manipulate
unbounded integers, exact rational numbers, real numbers
with arbitrary precision, symbolic formulae, polynomials,
sets, lists, and equations. It can solve systems of equa-
tions and differentiate and integrate formulae.
