Possible Vector Output Error with a function

Hello,

I'm wondering if this is a ligitimate error, or if there is something I may be missing. In the sheet you can see that I was trying to get a vector output from a vector input. If the expression is factored, is it possible that this will not work?

Please see the attached sheet.

It not an error at all. The expressions in both parantheses are vectors and so their product is calculated as scalar product.

To avoid this, Mathcad offers the Vectorize operator - look it up in the help.

Thank you again for your help Werner, it has been much appreciated. I was not aware of the vectorize operator.
