I am running into others problem.
I would like to know how to define a function, F(a,b), whose (i)th element depends on the (i-1)th element. F(a,b) is a vector. I have trouble using the notation of [, such as:
F(a,b)[i+1 :=F(a,b)[i +1
Mathcad does not allow me to define the following
F(a,b)[0 := XXXX
F(a,b)[1 := yyyy
etc....how I can do it? I can define F[0. F[1, but my function contains variable a and b which needs to be solved
What I need to do if to find the parameter to fit a set of data. I know the derivative of the data,
dy/dx = a*(1-(constant)/y)^b , I am trying to find the parameter of a and b that can fit my data. I needed to minimize the residual by changing a and b.
Note: I do not want to infer dy/dx from the data and use the known equation for dy/dx to do the fit...
I would like to fit y vs x numerically with the knowledge of dy/dx.
I do not know how to tell mathcad what I am trying to do.
Need help very badly on this one. Thank you very much
Solved! Go to Solution.
Using the ODE solver might be better - see attached.

Thanks Alan. You have been very helpful. I have to get myself familiar with with the notation of
left handed || and <-- though. Thanks
