NEED DESPERATELY: Maple 9 (math software)

Life - 7-3-2004 at 07:28

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone here could supply me with a copy of Maple 9, or know of where I can download it. I've already tried both KaZaA and eMule, but no such luck. I really need this software to complete a math assignment where I have to graph Helge von Koch's snowflake fractal.

Any help at all would be appreciated!

P.S. I've been hearing some mention of Bittorrent. Can anybody here explain to me what that is?

Bit torrent is an Open Source program that uses a seed file download system. Someone hosts a seed on a server and you download it and then open it with the BT program. Download speeds increase as more people download the file and share it.

I've downloaded Maple 9 TWICE off of kazaa to do some math projects.

How about you program the fractal set yourself? Shouldnt be that hard, and is quite a bit of fun!

Wow, it's assignement time, i got 3 person at the same time who asked me Maple 9 :P

I uploaded Mathematica once to the forum FTP, maybe it's still there. It should provide the same functionality.

Learn to program, kids. It's not that difficult, it only requires about 10 years experience to do something useful.

Simple Physics

It is truly amazing what kinds of complexities can be accurately described using simple physics and what things can be interpreted using geometry and trigonometry. I am not the most skilled programmer, and even I can write sequences of code to perform very useful tasks that would otherwise take me forever to get the same data.

Programming rules, both high and low level, but most especially low level.

Expecially low level, and some high level, but they'll get you there.
