Anyone here familiar with writing software for chemical application, especially using the OpenMaple API?

All I have is the help file from Maple 10, which contains a non-reading-friendly description of the OpenMaple Java API. It does not categorise the various Java classes and methods at all.

Hi Geodome,

I program my own.  I have created many types of calculations for personal use (makes work MUCH more efficient).  But, it is nice to use a great program (such as maple) in which they have finished alot of the hard calculations...

Has anyone else completed such a feat ... or does anyone else love math the way I do?

Sincerely,

Eugene

I guess it is common for chemical engineers to write their own mathematical package.
