Solved: No result obtained from lsolve.

omcgleish · ‎Jan 01, 2015

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help. I have set up a matrix of coefficients and one of resultants but upon using the lsolve function no results are obtained and no errors are returned. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thats strange. I glanced at the release notes of the current MC15 release and did not spot any fixed bug which would relate to that effect. Nevertheless it would be worth a try to update to the current MC15 [M030].

Other ideas: contact PTC support OR reinstall Mathcad.

As you can see in the pic below your sheet evaluates as it should for me,

You can obtain the solution by basic matrix operation, too, as shown in the pic.

What happens here?? Your file performs pretty well for me and we got the very same question with the same file here but the original poster did not come back to answer the questions.http://communities.ptc.com/message/267380#267380

Have you autocalculation turned on?

Which version (and which maintainance release) of Mathcad are you using?

Thank you for your help!

I will update my mathcad and try that first.

Thanks again.

I have the same version of Mathcad as you (15.0.0.436) and your file runs ok for me.
