How do I pass variables from MATLAB into Maple?

Here is an example of code that will not work as expected:

           a = 2.323423;

           b = 4.324323;

           maple('c:=a');  %The variable a is matlab variable

           maple('d:=b');  %The variable b is matlab variable

           maple('evalb(a<b)')

Here is the output:

          a-b < 0

Maple does not recognize the variables 'a' and 'b' from MATLAB's workspace.

The following example demonstrates how you can pass in the variables from MATLAB into the Maple function:

a = 2.323423

b = 4.324323

maple(['am:=' num2str(a)]); % The variable a is matlab variable

maple(['bm:=' num2str(b)]); % The variable b is matlab variable

maple('evalb(am<bm)')

PLEASE NOTE: The variables 'a' and 'b' are passed into MAPLE and now they are called 'am' and 'bm'. As expected the result is:
