Symbolically solving equation for a given variable in Maxima
I can solve an equation using Maxima by using the commands below.
kill(all);
A:A; phase:phase; solve(A*cos(2*pi*f*t+phase)=y,phase);
And it gives me the correct answer.
phase=acos(y/A)-2*f*pi*t
But when I try and solve for just the top portion of…

Zeroes of a Function in a Range in PARI/GP
I'm trying to find the zeroes of functions within the range [0,1]. My functions are generally looking something like this:
F(t)=2*sin(8*Pi*t)+2*sin(2*Pi*t)-1
The naive method I've tried so far is getting a very crude plot of the function into Pari,…

Restricting domain of solution set when using SymPy solve in the multiple variables case
Say, I'm trying to solve the system of equations:
for θ, λ and ɸ , where a, b, c and d are complex numbers and the matrix on the LHS is a unitary matrix.
The SymPy code I have at hand does successfully do the job but there are a few edge cases it…

Find maximum value of a function for a constrained boundary variable using Matlab or Matlab symbolic tool?
I am currently solving equations and I need to find the maximum value of a function.
The equation is
v = sqrt(u^2+2*a*s);
where 0.1 <= a <= 1.5 and
u = 2.75;
s = 3.194;
I have to solve a sequence of equations where each time I have one variable…

Solve complex matrix equation
I have a complex equation involving matrices:
R = expm(X)*A + (expm(X)-I)*inv(X)*B*U;
where R, B and U are known matrices.
I is an identity matrix.
I need to solve for X. Is there any way to solve this in MATLAB?

Which algorithm to solve a system of equations where variables are bits and operation is xor?
I'm trying to solve a system of equations. Each equation is in the form:
V1 xor V2 xor ... xor Vx = Sx
Vx and Sx are single bits variables.
The Sx are known and I need to find the value of all the Vx
ex:
V1 xor V2 xor V3 = 1
V1 xor V2 = 0
V2 xor…

Solve nonlinear equation symbolically in R with `Ryacas` package or an alternative
Out of pure curiosity I'm interested if there is a function/package that allows to solve simple nonlinear equations in R?
Let's say I want to (symbolically) solve 0 = C + 1/x^2. The expected result for the above example is x = sqrt(-1/-C)
I tried…
