Hi,

I am trying to use some commands like "Goal seek in excel" in mathcad prime 3.0. Though I have not found any exact command in mathcad but have been able to manage it thorough "root" command in the Function>Solving subcatagory menu. But I can't use this option for a matrix. Please see the attachment.

For my problem, I need to find two values of "k" at the same time in a matrix. If I use the values of " i " seperatey as " 0 " and " 1 ", it gives correct result, but if I use as " i = 0,1..1 ", it shows error. Can you please help me.

Thanks in Advance

Best Regards

If you make your function f(q) be f(q,i) instead, then your scheme works as required.

Unfortunately I do not have Prime at the moment, but I'm sure you will be able to achieve what you want using a solve block. Look in the help menu.
