These MapleVr4 worksheets contain the manual
Problem Solving with Maple:  A handbook for Calculus Students.
by Carl Eberhart, Dept of Mathematics, University of Kentucky.
This 'book of worksheets' is meant to help calculus students learn how
to use the language Maple to solve problems.   Maple, like any language, 
is most easily learned on a 'need to know' basis by observing how others 
with proficiency in the language use it and interacting with or modifying 
samples of their usage.   This handbook provides lots of samples of problems
and their solutions for you to inspect and modify.

The worksheet work2.mws contains a 'table of contents' with hyperlinks
to the other worksheets. Just click on the link to go to the topic you 
want.   Each worksheet has several bookmarks which can be accessed from 
the View menu at the top of the worksheet.  In addition, there is an index
worksheet which contains an alphabetized list of all the bookmarks in the 
handbook, with links to the worksheet containing the bookmark.  Just click 
on the topic you want.   I have referenced lots of uses of Maple words like 
plot, solve, diff, and others together with lots of specific problems and 
their solutions, concepts that come up in calculus, etc.

How to use this handbook?  I would suggest you keep it on disk.  As you
study calculus and work on problems, spend some time looking for similar
problems in the handbook to see how they are solved there.   You can
modify or add to the handbook however you want, so as time goes on
the handbook could become a useful collection of notes for you.  If you
find any   bad mistakes, please let me know  at carl@ms.uky.edu.  Good
luck.

I have included a version of a perl script I wrote to construct the
index worksheet for the  'book of worksheets'.  It has been tested
in Windows 95 and also unix, although I cannot say whether the worksheets
the unix version of MapleVr4 since it is not yet available.  

Earlier versions of this handbook were written with the support of
the NSF Calculus Reform Program grant (DUE-9252494).
