Hello,

I have two functions which are depenent on each others results. Calculation as attached.

Can this kind of iteration problem be solved using the "Line" -option of programming toolbar?

Thank you for your help.

Actually, as presented, I don't see any need for iteration or the solve block, just algebra. The solve block just spit out the original values (with a little error).

Perhaps some calrification of the problem is needed?

Mathcad has a built-in construct for this; you could program it, but "Given/Find" is a better, easier way:

What was not clear in the sheet is that the 49 mm in the equation for R should really be the variable c; the equations are coupled. So you are correct, a little algebra would avoid the use of the solve block.
