Maple Toolbox for MATLAB Now Available

Maplesoft has announced the availability of the Maple Toolbox for MATLAB, after an extensive public beta testing period. The new Toolbox combines the best in symbolic and numeric computation to develop mathematical solutions and perform in-depth analysis of the results.

The beta version was tested over a period of two months. Users are very enthusiastic about the combined advantage of having access to symbolic and numeric computations offered by both Maple and MATLAB. The Maple Toolbox for MATLAB consists of two components, Maple 10 - a powerful and intuitive tool for solving complex mathematical problems and creating rich, executable technical documents - and the Maple-MATLAB Connector. The Maple-MATLAB Connector is an add-on to Maple 10 that provides a two-way link between Maple and MATLAB, enabling users to define variables in either environment and access them in both. The Toolbox will benefit companies involved in the design and development of engineering systems for the automotive, aerospace, biomedical, chemical processes and robotics markets, and engineering schools that use both Maple and MATLAB.

The Maple Toolbox for MATLAB, which is up to 50 times faster than MATLAB's Extended Symbolic Math Toolbox, features an interactive technical document interface with an intuitive 2-D equation editor for typeset-quality mathematical presentation. As well as access to Maple's math engine, the Maple Toolbox for MATLAB includes statistics, optimization, enhanced graphics, scientific constants, units, tolerances and code generation to five languages: C, FORTAN, Microsoft Visual Basic, Java and MATLAB. Finally, it includes access to over 50 interactive assistants and tutors that aid in the rapid development of solutions.
