Variable claims to not be defined when it is (at least I think it is..)

Variable claims to not be defined when it is (at least I think it is..)

I'm trying to find m.mix at the bottom of my sheet and I can't figure out why it isn't cooperating. I feel like I did the exact same thing for my h.steam and s.steam on the first page and it worked just fine there.

Thanks

Nevermind. I didn't have my other variables (m.steam) defined yet.

Yes, thats the reason.

The solve block will always throw that error message, whatever the real eror might be. You can rightclick the expression which throws the error and selcet "Trace" and then "First". This will lead you to the real cause of the error.

Why do you evaluate your solve blocks symbolically?

Usually, when you evaluate symbolically you wouldn't provide a guess value.

I guess that numerical eval would be good enough here.
