Compute multiple values under if statement

I would like to calculate multiple values under one if statement. Right now, the only thing I know about if statement is that I have to assign if statement to a variable and that means I can only do one variable at a time. Please see below.

For this example, if I would also like to compute some other variables other than SF under condition that d<=1/4 in, without creating another if statement, what can I do?

 

Thank you very much!

 

Edit: clarify question

Ah, in that case you can just add as many lines under the one if or else statement as you like.   Use Enter or Shift-Enter at the end of your "3" expression to enter a new line (can't remember which and I've only got Mathcad Express, which doesn't have programming - hence the red rectangle).   The Help on the subject is fairly clear, IIRC.

Note that SF will contain a vector with the two values you want.

 

Cheers,

Try this ...

* make your program into a function,
* create a vector of the values you want to transform and then
* apply the function to the vector using the vectorize operator.

d:=stack(0.2, 0.5, 03, 0.1, 0.7)
SF(d):= (your program .. minus the evaluation operator (=))

---->
SF(d)=

where ----> represents the vectorize operator.

Dear Stuart,

 

Thank you very much! Although, I guess this would give me multiple values for SF. I didn't mean this and sorry for not making this clear. What I meant was to compute other variables other than SF under this condition or other condition.
