Hello all,

I'm new to the program, but I'm finding it very useful. Quite a nice piece of software.

Hopefully this is a quick question... I've entered a simple, one dimensional matrix and I can't seem to get a solution that includes all of the possibilities.

The first equation does what I want, it shows me a solution for each of the entries in the matrix. My second equation does not. I have attempted this a few different ways, two of them are included in the attachments.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm sure it's probably something stupid.

Thanks in advance!

use a loop while trying to make calculations for each matrix element.

Thank you!

Kinda weird that it worked in the first instance. Oh well, loops aren't exactly difficult, now that I know that's what I need to do here.

Thanks again for your effort and help.

Cheers!

because multiplying matrix or vector with a number and multiplying two matrix (or vector) is different.
multiplying "v" with "v" ( which is square of "v" ) and making a "v=" will create scalar product of the vectors.
i can only recommend you to download and read handbook.

have a nice day.
