Part 1: Elementary Calculations

Each of the command entry instructions below is sent to Maple for processing by pressing the RETURN or ENTER key on your keyboard.

1. In the Maple worksheet, type
   2+3;
   and then press RETURN or ENTER. (From now on, we will not add this last part of the instruction.)
2. Enter
   2-3;
3. Enter
   2*3;
4. Enter
   6/3;
5. Enter
   2^3;

Note that each line must be ended with a semicolon. That's how Maple knows that a single command is complete. The majority of errors made by beginners in Maple are omissions of semicolons.
