Let's Talk Interactive vs. Maple

Maple is very useful in following scenarios :

• When doing some equation modelling for differential equations
• Writing code to simulate a electrical of mathematical system
• Speech and Image Processing Use case
• Linear Algebra Problems
• Lot of Options to plot 2-D and 3-D, including implicit, contour, complex, polar, vector field, conformal, density, ODE, PDE, and, statistical plot
• Engineering plots, including time and frequency domain responses and root-locus and root-contour plots

Incentivized

• Numerical Calculation and Calculus
• Visualization of statistical and numerical data
• Predefined code templates for standard problem like finding FFT

Incentivized

• On the software side and the software is bulky
• Code Editor can be improved
• Sometime software fails and hang when doing high calculation

Incentivized

Maple is a very niche product and competes directly with Mathematica and MATLAB. It is a little expensive as compared to the other two however has more set of functions and libraries which makes it for suitable for high level and complex mathematics. It's editor is not on par with other two however it's visualization module is very good and powerful.

Incentivized

• It saves time and does lot of hard calculation which is not possible manually
• Software is little bit expensive however has more functions as compared to Matlab and Mathematica
• Learning curve is little steep and hence take additional time to master
