The first command tells Maple where the package files are located. After starting Maple, execute the command
> libname := libname, "yourdirectorypath";
where yourdirectorypath is the full path to the directory where you saved the vec_calc files using / between directories. For example, on Windows, if you saved them in the recommended directory, then the command will be
> libname := libname, "C:/Program Files/Maple 6/vec_calc";
If you saved them on a floppy, then the command will be
> libname := libname, "A:/";
and if you saved them in the directory D:\mypath\mydir then the command will be
> libname := libname, "D:/mypath/mydir";
Note The path is enclosed in double quotes (").
The second command reads in the vec_calc package along with three other required packages:
> with(plots): with(student): with(linalg): with(vec_calc);
Finally, the third (optional) command defines many abbreviations for the vec_calc commands:
> vc_aliases;
To get help on any command, execute
> ?vec_calc
and follow the hyperlinks.
