When I, in Maple 17, use LinearSolve in the package LinearAlgebra I get an result like
<3_t3,_t3,-2_t3>
Is it possible to tell Maple to name the variable _t3 something else? I want it to be named just "t" or something.
Can I collect the variable, so the result would be something like
_t3 * <3,1,-2>
I guess it's called standard parametric form. I've tried collect(%,_t3), but it does not do what I want.
Answering your first question: Yes, simply include the option free= t in your LinearSolve call.
I'll have to think on your second question for a while.
