OpenMaple Application Program Interface (API) for Python

OpenMaple for Python provides an interface between the Maple evaluation engine and a Python program. This is implemented using Python classes and standard interfaces.

Overview

To use the Maple API for Python, start by importing the library maplesoft.maple. This implicitly launches a Maple session.

import maplesoft.maple

maple Package

The maple package has the following commands:

To access Maple variables and predefined functions and commands, you can use the symbol or symbols function or import the maple.namespace interface:

The symbol function returns an Expression object.

The symbols function returns a tuple of Expression objects.

The namespace subpackage offers general access to any Maple name or function.

The range function returns an Expression object corresponding to a Maple range.

namespace Subpackage

The maple.namespace subpackage allows any Maple name or function to be accessed with a simple prefix. This prefix is arbitrary, but for consistency in these examples we will assume the subpackage was assigned the name msymbol after being imported with the following command.

import maplesoft.maple.namespace as msymbol

Global names or commands may be referenced as msymbol.sin, msymbol.solve, etc.

Commands in Maple packages or subpackages may be referenced using the chosen prefix and replacing instances of the Maple member selection operator (:-) in the Maple qualified name with a period (.). For example, LinearAlgebra:-Determinant would become msymbol.LinearAlgebra.Determinant.

Classes

Every OpenMaple object created in a Python session is an Expression object.

Depending on the type of the underlying Maple expression, the object may also be an instance of a subclass of Expression , such as ComplexNumeric or List .

Class Listing

Expression

The Expression class is the parent class of all the classes that represent Maple objects. Its member functions provide access to all the basic functions that can be performed on a Maple expression.

ComplexNumeric

The ComplexNumeric class represents complex numbers. Conceptually, a ComplexNumeric object contains two RealNumeric objects: its real part and its imaginary part.

Inherits from Expression.

RealNumeric

The RealNumeric class represents numeric literals. Note that Maple integers and fractions appearing in output from OpenMaple computations are represented as Python integers and Fractions.fraction objects, so this class is effectively only used for floating-point numbers.

Inherits from ComplexNumeric.

Name

The Name class represents a Maple symbol. This includes both global symbols and names defined in Maple packages.

Inherits from Expression.

Indexable

The Indexable class is the parent class of all the classes that represent Maple collections. Its member functions provide access to the basic functions that can be performed on a collection, such as querying its size and testing for membership.

Inherits from Expression.

ExpressionSequence

The ExpressionSequence class represents a Maple expression sequence .

Inherits from Indexable.

List

The List class represents a Maple list .

Inherits from Indexable.

RTable

The RTable class represents an rtable (rectangular table), a Maple data structure for storing homogenous data of arbitrary dimension.

Inherits from Indexable.

Set

The Set class represents a Maple set .

Inherits from Indexable.

Table

The Table class represents a table. Data can be inserted and removed from the table and a table can be searched for a particular element.

Inherits from Indexable.
