Maxima supports three types of numbers: exact fractions (which can be generated for example by typing 1/10), IEEE floating-point numbers (0.2) and arbitrary precision big floats (1b-1). Note that, owing to their nature as binary (not decimal) numbers, there is for example no way to generate an IEEE floating-point number that exactly equals 0.1. If floating-point numbers are used instead of fract..

The wxMaxima interface is basically a wxMaxima file. To save it, you use the menu option "File > Save As ..." and give it a name, say, File01. The resulting sufix is .wxmx The information saved includes all text cells entered (including Title, Section, etc.), and input commands, as well as outputs. However, the specifications (%i1), (%01), etc., will not be available. To re-evaluate input cells,..

You can access the last output using the variable '%'. You can access the output of previous commands using variables '%o n' where n is the number of output. '%' 변수를 사용하여 마지막 출력에 액세스할 수 있습니다. '%on' 변수를 사용하여 이전 명령의 출력에 액세스할 수 있습니다. 여기서 n은 출력 횟수입니다. '%in'을 입력하면 n번째 입력한 내용을 그대로 반환한다.
Maxima uses ':' to assign values to a variable ('a : 3;'), not '=' as most programming languages do. This allows, that a mathematical equation can be assigned to a variable, e.g. eq1:3*x=4; which may then be solved for x with solve(eq1,x); Maxima는 대부분의 프로그래밍 언어처럼 '='가 아닌 ':'를 사용하여 변수('a : 3;')에 값을 할당합니다. 이를 통해 수학 방정식을 변수에 할당할 수 있습니다. eq1:3*x=4; 예를 들어, x에 대해 solve(eq1,x); 출처 : Tip of the day

Shift+Enter and Enter By default, Shift+Enter is used to evaluate commands, while Enter is used for multiline input. This behaviour can be changed in 'Edit->Configure' dialog by checking 'Enter evaluates cells'. This switches the roles of these two key commands.
