Maple fails to parse() spesial characters

I need to generate things like" F||;||(,t,t)". I try parse("F__||;|(,t,t)"). Maple returns "Error, incorrect syntax in parse: ; unexpected (near 6th character of parsed string)" Is there any way to get this F||;||(,t,t)"?

Solution

  • To create names with special characters, you need to use single back quotes (also known as accent grave), which is the character under escape on most US keyboards. 

    parse("`F__||;||`(``,t,t)");
