Yes, exactly. And I think I should aslo note the fact that you are the author of that article; thank you Sir.
However as I mentioned, the point is that the illustrations were for Macsyma and evidently the simple act of entering these codes in the Maxima console did not produce desirable results so that I could check the illustrations.
When I joined this forum, I was looking for a similar code in Maxima that gives me a clue (or much better, an affirmation) of how should it goes -of course if there is room for.
It is not the matter of spending my time on learning this language, I learn whatever I 'need'. All I want to know is that whether this language provides me with the abilities I look for after I learn it or I should solve the problem by hand.
