Prime 3.1: Method for converting range variable to vector no longer works!

In Mathcad 15, if I want to convert a non-integer range variable to a vector, I can use several techniques, including this:

However, in Prime 3.1 all I get is this:

I want to complain!

I want to complain!

Responsive as PTC usually is, you sure will get feedback and a solution very soon.

Let them please a little bit of time, because they just have to first implement MDAs and a few other odds and ends.


Seems like the internal loops are now implemented differently.


Some other of the old and dirty tricks still work, like the assignment with in-line evaluation:

I'm not normally paranoid, but I'm beginning to think they do these things just to annoy me.

Thank goodness for that! I thought I was going crazy.

This at least still works:

You do have to define the range variable though, because it won't let you pass a range value as an argument (why?).

Tell me about it, already.   I pointed this out years ago ... Re: Convert Nested Array to Matrix

So they've implemented the behaviour of good-old Mcad 11:

into Prime 3.1:

I do hope the loss of recursive local functions in Prime isn't a step towards the "good-old M11 behaviour" of *no* local functions!
