: Developers could now encrypt procedures to share executable code while hiding the underlying source code to protect intellectual property. Point-and-Click Problem Solving - What's New in Maple 2018
Maple 2018 added several specialized toolsets to broaden its application in science and engineering: Maple 2018.0
: This side panel analyzes selected mathematical expressions to offer relevant operations—such as solving for variables, plotting, or converting units—without requiring knowledge of Maple syntax. : Developers could now encrypt procedures to share
The most visible change in Maple 2018 was the introduction of the , which consolidated and improved the software's "Clickable Math" tools. : Optimizations to the F4 algorithm provided a
: Optimizations to the F4 algorithm provided a 33% faster performance on quad-core systems by increasing parallel speedup.
: A new package based on Qhull for computing convex hulls, Voronoi diagrams, and Delaunay triangulations.
: Introduced support for interpolating data from arbitrary, unstructured locations using methods like Kriging and radial basis functions.
