Hello,

When I use the solve() function with this code:

var('r2')
c = P*e^(r*n)
d = P*(1+r2)^n
solve(c==d,r2)

I receive the following exception:

========

TypeError: Computation failed since Maxima requested additional

Does anyone have any thoughts on ways to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance :-)
