Maple is a complex application designed to provide the tools to analyze, visualize, explore and find solutions to mathematical problems.
Maple gathers under the same intuitive interface over 5000 functions and thus is able to handle every type of problem and mathematics.
The smart document environment allows you to keep in the same place all kinds of technical knowledge such as calculations, explanatory text and math, graphics, sound, images and diagrams.
