I made a couple simple functions that I would like to share that helps with debugging of long Mathcad Prime (circa v9) programs. (file attached) I was making a VERY LONG convoluted program that called several sub-functions (in order to split it up). But it still had bugs by the time it was fully grown (don't we all;). I made this function so that I could locate the errors before it happened. It is basically a logger that lets the program continue. It is better than a "return" statement in a few ways: Since there is no 'remarks' statement in programing, this can also be a substitute—they do not need to be removed (except for speeding up long iteration functions).You do not have to delete the "debug" functions in order to keep the program running and running to a proper conclusion whereas "return" statement must be added/removed every time it is needed."debug" functions do not screw up the output if it is in a sub-functionYou can display the d
Hi there, I'm wondering what does the (i) represent in mathcad?
Hello everyone,i want to program this in Mathcad. Could someone help me with this?
I have just bought the mathcad student edition and never recieved the product code.
My laptop that had downloaded MATHCAD has broken and im trying to move my license over to my main PC, is there a way to do this without creating a new account?
Instead of simply stating the equation with its result how can I should break it down to show the specific values assigned to the variables and how they contribute to the final result. for example if I have p:=10 q:=20 I want to show r:= p+q=10+20=30 is this something i can do?
Hi everyone,I want to use two different vectors in one equation ...what should be the iterator f ,q and dz I used length function but it gives me strange results
Hello,My co-worker has installed a newer version of MathCAD, and I am now unable to access files that she has saved. I would like to update my version so it is compatible (but continue using MathCAD Express).I have tried using the website to request a new installer, twice in the last two days, but the promised email has never arrived (and yes I have checked my junk folder).Are you able to help me out?Cheers, Daniel
I just had a look at unanswered posts, and this was at the top of my list: https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad/Prime-9-Chart-Components-Can-Become-Corrupt/td-p/956950 I have been struggling through a file I created originally in Prime 9 that has 3 chart components. The first is a simple chart component with absolutely no modifications made to it, containing 24 curves. The second chart has 6 curves with customized legend, line styles, title, etc. The 3rd chart has 10 curves and all elements of the chart are customized heavily (chart title, legend, trace names, line type/color/thickness, axes names and tick mark font sizing on all elements, etc.). This 3rd chart continues to become corrupt after saving it - of course this is the one that needs to be published! NOTE - Prime 10 seems to be "behaving" so far - hopefully this has been addressed in this latest version. Stay on the lookout for this issue with your chart components using Prime 9! I thought I'd play with Ch
All, I recently bought MathCAD 10.00 Prime Student Edition and was unaware that once I logged into a certain machine with the license that it would lock in with that specific machine and I would be unable to log in on any other machine. I initially synced up a machine that I do not have consistent access to and I would like to move, or reset, or whatever needs to be done, to have the license that I purchased be activated/synced with the specific machine that I want. Was wondering if anyone could help. Best, - VG
Just one question about ( min function) why it works only with scalars ... whenever I want to use it with vectors or matrics it doesn't work ... How to overcome this ? Should I always use programming ? For example the following program : in each (qc;gem;cor ) I have 3 matrics each one has ten values.... what I need is to write a program that will compare the both variables and choose the minimum value of each one ( compare the first raw with the first raw and chooses the min ...and so on ) ...and the result should be also one matric with ten values. However, it chooses only the minimum value of each matrics
My students and I use Mathcad to solve problems of dynamics. My students this year (prime 10.0.0.0) come sometimes across an unknown error when using a solve block. The error mentions "bad solve block"; refer also to the screenshot. I have never come across it before and I have no clue what the reason could be for this error. After retyping the equtions and the "find" command, the solve block executes correctly. But I don't see a difference between the original solve block and the one after retyping it. So it stays a mistery why one time it executes and the other time it doesn't.
Hello I am working on my bachelors project. I have made a function that calculate the heat recovery in a heat exchanger with a faze change (condensation). The function calculates the potential heat recovery based on the temperature that comes out of the heat exchangers hot side. The function works fine but i can not get it to solve the function, so i can calculate the temperature based on the heat energy. Does anyone know how to solve this or the reason for the error?
I wrote a program to correct the value of q. I wanted to choose always the minimum value and I put the maximum limit to be 15 MPa , I don't know why it is not working . Do you know how to solve this problem?Thanks
I have purchased the license and when I activate it it says invalid, license type: No License ---------------------------------------------------------Translated the topic from Spanish to English using google translateSubject - no licencia validaBody - he comprado la licencia y al activarla me dice envalid, typo de licencia : No License-By Community Moderation Team---------------------------------------------------------
I have R which contains 27 matrics all of them have the same corresponnding depth ( ztips). I want to draw all of the matrics in one plot instead of having 27 plots. I tried the one Mr. Werner suggested before. However, it doesn't work here. I guess the mistake is that ztips and R are different types. The sheet is too long and I can't just substract R because it is the final result of all the above calculation. Sorry for this trouble Page 27 Prime 9
HiIn Prime 10, is it possible to impose a domain of definition of variables?in a geometric calculation, I do not have enough constraints, and it is difficult to have a unique solution. Is it possible to specify the domain of definition of the variables in order to converge ?Thanks
I have trouble with different versions on my school computers and on my own laptop. I myself have MathCad version 10.0 (free verion) and my school computers has 7.0. Now I can't open files on the older version that I have edited on my own laptop. Is there a way to download older versions of MathCad. I tried it from MathCad Express Free Download but there was no option to select older versions of mathcad to be downloaded.Thank you in advance!
When trying to add product code to a new machine i am told i have reached max license. I found Link to open a ticket. When i try to open a case i get nothing after entering the product code I purchased the code from my commerce any help would be great. or a direct phone number Thanks
The product is for educational use, I am a 4th year Mechanical Engineering student. It would be nice to have the license for one more month. Thanks------------------------------------------------------------Translated text from Spanish to English using google translateSubject - Uso EducativoBody - El producto es para uso educativo, soy estudiante de Ingeniería Mecánica de 4to año. Estaría bueno tener la licencia por un mes mas. Gracias.-By Community Moderation Team------------------------------------------------------------
Last time we wrote this function to classify soil layers. I need to show that in the plot can that be possible in mathcad ?. I need to connect the table with the plot . so it draws horizontal marker whenever the layer changes. or change colors ..any kind of change to make it possible for the reader to understand it changes layer typeLike (y ) will be both z and ztop to draw the plot . z is the depth ztop the thickness of the layers
Although I'm using different variables, I don't know why I'm having the same results for Mi .. It is on page 14 Thanks in advance
Anybody know why I can't click next and finish licensing MathCad, Same thing is happening on my computer at work and at home.
I can't log in as a student, a lot of functions are blocked, how do I unlock them?
I have switched Operating System from Windows to Linux. I need Mathcad for school work, so I Virtualized a Windows Machine on my Laptop. I now wanted to install Mathcad on this new Virtualized Windows machine, but when trying to activate the licence, I get an error message that I have too many licence requests for this licence. I guess because I already activated the new licence on the old machine, it now is fixed to that one? I tried activating it via the sw_licence_email_######.dat file I got send on my account email weeks ago when activating on the old machine, but this also didn't work. The error message here is: The licence request failed. Requesting MathcadPrime ... C:\Users\user\Downloads\sw_license_email_######.dat: (-9) Invalid HostHelp or info would be appreciated.Thank you for support
