Team,

I need to automate this for sequential integer values of n.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks,

What I need is the numerator of the function f(n) = a/b expressed as a fraction. Thus, I need the value of a. 

The series would be: 1, 1, 3, 5, 35, 63, 231 for n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

The problem I’m having is that Mathcad Prime’s numerator function only applies to symbolic processing.

Except the denominator should be 4^n. I’ll try it later.

Here done in MC15 using a vector instead of a range.

The “vec” function is available in Prime 11 and above.

Please note that vectorization and symbolic evaluation of X are mandatory.

 

BTW, the question should have been posted in “Mathcad” (like this) and rather not in “Ask me anything about Mathcad” which, contrary to the title, is NOT intended for questions regarding the use of Mathcad.

Hi ​@Werner_E 

Thanks for mentioning this. I’ve now moved the topic to Mathcad. 😄
