Document
Blocks
An important decision when creating any technical document, presentation,
or application is the amount of technical detail. With Maple 10, your
important points are not hidden amongst derivations, commands, and extra
white space. You can hide intermediate computations, show results in
the middle of a block of text, and not enter or show a single Maple command.
For more information on using Document mode as a command-free interface,
see the Document
mode section.
Document blocks allow you to hide intermediate computations and commands,
while still maintaining a live, interactive technical document. The steps
necessary for calculations, but not for comprehension of the final document,
can be hidden from view.
Features include:
- The ability to show hidden computations.
- Hidden and visible calculations are updated
when the document is re-executed, ensuring that the results
dependent on the hidden computations are still correct.
- Maths and text can be combined in a single
block. Results can appear on a new line or inline directly
beside the calculation.
