A chapter in Geometry of Curves and Surfaces with MAPLE, 2000, pp 1-4 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The Computer Algebra System (CAS) MAPLE V Releases 4, 5 and/or 6 (below we write simply MAPLE) consists of a kernel written in C, a library written in the language of MAPLE, and an interface. The kernel executes most of the basic operations. The library contains commands (procedures) that work in interpretation mode. Built-in programming language support for writing our own procedures allows us to build on the basic capabilities of MAPLE. Although MAPLE can run on various platforms, we assume throughout the book that the reader uses this package with Microsoft Windows 95 or later. We work in MAPLE in session mode: after the prompt symbol > the user enters expressions (commands, procedures, terms) > sum(i, i=1..1999); # example of a command that are interpreted in MAPLE to produce and display results. (We use the symbol # to denote comments at the ends of command lines).
