Does mathcad give you a location (line number etc) where it goes wrong?

(Generally with corrupted files, Mathcad gives a line number and character position of the 'offending'' item.)

 

Success!

Here it is.

I have seen this error a few times myself.

It usually happens when mathcad crashes during a save.

If this is what happened then the file will be 0 bytes long (no content) & not recoverable from the file.

 

However, if you look in the folder where you were trying to save there may be a file in the form "MFCxxnn.TMP" where xx are random letters & nn are random digits.

If there is try renaming it from .tmp to .xmcd .

My experience has been that I can usually recover all the data that I had saved.

Apart from looking for left-over temp files, its a good idea to turn on Mathcads "Autosave feature" (-> Tools / Preferences / Save / Autosave). Thats one of the many features not available in Prime - and it sure would be needed there as Prime seems to damage fles much more often than Mathcad did.

 

Find attached a working version of your corrupted file. Check the content as I have removed one region which was responsible for the failure. It looks like this region was placed somewhere near the top of the worksheet and looked like

Some additional remarks:

When you defined theta in chapter 2.4, you used a literal index instead of the necessary vector index.

Later in this chapter it look like you confused 12 and 21 and also 13 and 31.
