ON MAPLET DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRAMMING TUTORIAL FOR SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING STUDENTS

摘要

The information contained in this paper is of an introductory nature a tutorial on the 'Maplet Development and Programming' for selected science and engineering students. The knowledge gained by the authors is documented here to help students who are interested in pursuing science and/or engineering for their degree, and who have a keen interest in a hands-on experience for solving selected science/engineering problems using MAPLE. As a part of this tutorial, technical how-to details are given to help the student develop simple maplets with simple programming constructs that are needed to solve these selected problems. The process of developing Maplets demonstrated within this tutorial will provide a hands-on experience using MAPLE. The authors believe that this paper will engage engineering and science students to create or modify existing Maplets for their other college course activities. The tutorial assumes a familiarity with basic programming constructs, and would be appropriate after an introductory programming course, one year of the calculus and one year of any physical science.
