Are there instructions on how to remotely access MAPEL anywhere? It would be nice to have access to check my work.

Login to software remote at the following link: https://goremote.ics.purdue.edu/Citrix/XenApp/auth/login.aspx You will probably need to install the Citrix software. Once you do and are logged in, select Applications -> Standard Software -> Computational Packages -> Maple 14 and the software will load remotely. Brig --Brericks 10:50, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Another great resource I've found is: http://www.wolframalpha.com/

Question #14, is f(x) even? I know that pi*exp(-X) is neither odd or even, but when I graph the 2 conditions, they are symmetrical about the origin. To solve the problem, do I split up the integrals like Question #20?

Question #17-18: Is there some way to "show" this analytically (given the hints), or should we just compute the first half-dozen terms and say "close enough"? Self-Answer: f(x) = x^2. Solve for the sum after subbing for x. Holy cow I'm dumb!

Question #20, The integral for a_o, a_n, and b_n all have a term f(x)=0 (conditions are 0 to 2). Does this integral=0 there is no area when I draw the graph?

Are we allowed to use Maple of MatLab to graph? Or should we hand-sketch the plots?
