By this, I mean the value of the last sexp as some other src blocks do
(elisp? octave? Not sure which...).  It's what I would expect to see if
I were to specify ":results value".

And your improvements definitely look good!  Thanks.  I use maxima a lot
for teaching so will need to reconsider the material on some of my
slides (next year... :-)).

I also use embedded Calc as it's easier to incorporate directly in text,
especially in org, but Calc is not quite as capable as maxima as a
computer algebra system.
