No reasonable person would expect that for indexing roots.

Not even in 1 product over several releases I would expect
that the ordering is the same.

"Some Mathematica commands do not have an exact Maple equivalent; however,
the translation can still 
be performed using the MmaTranslator[Mma] subpackage, which contains
commands based on the existence 
of very similar Maple commands. For more information, see
MmaTranslator[Mma]."

And there you will not find "Root" (but the list is not complete).

So at best the do***entation could be more clear.


Actually this shows a defect in trusting your machine, that's all.


Just solve the task I gave you through my answer, you even have
been given the solution, just find the way ... will you, can you?
