The first command tells Maple where the package files are located. If you saved your files in the standard folder, ignore this step. Otherwise, after starting Maple, execute the command
> libname := libname, "yourfolderpath";
where yourfolderpath is the full path to the folder where you saved the VecCalc files using / between subfolders. For example, on Windows, if you saved them on a USB drive (with drive letter E), in a folder E:\mypath\myfolder then the command will be
> libname := libname, "E:/mypath/myfolder";
Note The path is enclosed in double quotes (").
The second command reads in the package commands:
> with(VecCalc);
Finally, the third (optional) command defines many abbreviations for the VecCalc commands:
> VCalias;
To get help on any command, execute
> ?VecCalc
and follow the hyperlinks.
