Hi,

I am trying to convert a Mathcad 15 sheet, and have a problem with the below equation:
sum.JPG
Is there a summation within Smath that will do the second summation?
From the Mathcad help:
sum1.JPG

Thanks in advance
Ian

Hi. There are not equivalent, but this is how to convert it into usual summation operator.

Best regards.

Better to attach the original Mathcad document.

Jean, I am at a loss as to which part of your file I should be looking at.

Hi. As Viacheslav says, it's better in this case the mathcad file. Just a couple of notes.

You use a for loop with i as counter. Thus, at the exit, i equals the last count value, not the entire range. So, or you redefine i as range, or use this way for not changing i value

Actually, SMath doesn't have "range" variables, it only have scalars and matrices. But mathcad have "true" range variables, which it's more a complication than an adventage. BTW in SMath you can't use a range variable in the same way, and sometimes needs some dummy variable for detect them

Finally, remember that in mathcad sqrt(-1) is 1i, but in SMath it is just i, so using is as counter you loose all the complex algebra.

Bests regards.
Alvaro.

It just shows how to run summation wrt several dependent functions.

Hi Alvaro,

Some interesting hints there. I imagine its also the same going the other way.

Hi Jean,

OK, now I understand, just some pointers for me

Thanks

The A,B are numerical two vectors of coefficients.
Then introduced in the scalar function wrt sin/cos.

I think that there should be such a replacement.

You can use debugging in both programs to check that the functions are working correctly.
