@Markiyan Hirnyk Any translator will be buggy and get more so with each new passing version if they are not supported.

I only played with it once.

@Markiyan Hirnyk Yes there is http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/Demos/188/ 

You wrote "They likely need not it."   Why not?

Similarily Mathematica has an outdated Mapleconverter package.  It has been pointed out before that MmaTranslator package is outdated.  That should be understandable, it is great for users of Maple/Mathematica but not so great for Maplesoft (ie resource allocation). 

I think you'll find these types of packages are not so greatly supported or updated by either Mathematica or Maplesoft.

What does Mathematica say?

I animated it ..

animate(implicitplot, [x*sin(t)+y*sin(2*t), x = -10 .. 10, y = -10 .. 10, thickness = 2], t = 1 .. 2*Pi)

.. but perhaps that provides nonsense.

What's the graph supposed to look like?

@Carl Love in your case has(ifactor(2^7,7))  will indeed be true, it's not really a flaw, it works by design.

Thanks for pointing out the inefficiency, I didn't realize that.

@Thomas Richard The .015 was for plotting purposes only, it was actually 18.01a

I'm pretty sure I haven't missed any releases (major or minor) after Maple 5

Which dot releases are missing?  With the exception of Maple 9.5, a major dot release and Maple 10 (which had 6 dot releases) the majority of the time one could expect 1 dot fix update per release.  Ok I see now why I shouldn't focus on dot releases - that being a dot release is a fix rather than a major platform release.

@Adam Ledger There are users who are very adept with Maple.  Yes you are correct, he answers a great many questions and offers help much appreciated by all users.  Why do you suspect he is on the Maplesoft payroll?  The users who are responding to questions on the Maplesoft payroll are users who's names are highlighted in blue.  As for space aliens .. why not use Maple

is(aliens=laughing)
                               false

That would be similar to pulling out a signal using fourier analysis.

If Mathematica cannot pull out m1,m2,s1,s2 from two given samples then that would suggest that Mathematica is speculating the results.

@Carl Love .. if maplesoft chimed in we would find out.

@Carl Love I never thought to ponder what the number in version() meant and that it could possibly be related to the number of person-hours .. interesting. 

Indeed, for me it would be more for curiosity, and the fact the Mathematica has it and Maple doesn't.

What value could someone get out of determining that a dataset contains two particular distributions?

Ok it appears just to type in Maple 12 or Maple 2016 in the search.  However the advanced search feature on maplesoft is still broken.

The best I could do was modify the header in the address by adding a value for the ?term= part

For example

http://www.maplesoft.com/applications/AdvancedSearch.aspx?term=einstein&rcid=&sa.x=0&sa.y=0

I haven't figured out what rcid, sa.x or sa.y is yet.

But it appears the fields entered on the advanced search web page are not being passed into the system to search.
