If you have a sufficiently old version of MATLAB (up to R2008a) with the Extended Symbolic Toolbox installed (not just the Symbolic Toolbox), then you could make that call, as in those days the Extended Symbolic Toolbox was Maple.

For any newer release, you need to have Maple installed, along with the MATLAB Link of Maple. You are given an opportunity to install the MATLAB Link when you install Maple, if Maple detects that you have MATLAB installed.

I have Matlab installed and I am installing Maple. And, Maple has detected that Matlab is installed in my device and suggests that I link my Matlab installation with Maple as well install a toolbox wich will connect Maple with Matlab. It ask me that I specify which Matlab I would like to configure that toolbox with.

Please, I need the help of someone who has linked the Matlab installation with Maple. Thank you.

I can't install Maple with Matlab. Maple has detected that my Matlab has been installed in my device is 32bits and conflicts could occur with Maple which is 64bit. However, my device is 64bit with RAM.40MB
