In summary: NDSolve[...], {n = NDSolve[...], {l = NDSolve[...], {c = NDSolve[...], {d = Array[f, {4,4}]}, {b = Det[d]}, {Print[a, " ", z, " ", w, " ", b]}}}}}}, the conversation describes the writing of a program in Mathematica with some errors that needed to be fixed. The program uses NDSolve to solve a system of differential equations, and involves nested for loops and the creation of a matrix, which is then used to calculate a determinant and print the results.

I wrote this programm in mathematica but I had some errors that I could not solved
I hope that anybody could help me

What particular errors?
 
  • #3
This fixes the first couple of layers of errors.
Semicolons and {} are very different in Mathematica from what are used in other languages.
And your d matrix was not what you expected it to be.
I expect there are more errors to be found and fixed.

Thank you very much, that was really helpful.

I am facing a little problem when I run my code in another method, it outputs a slightly different result than what your code does. Can you please manifest the reason for that?

See the attachments.

I thought I had figured out what you were doing. It appears that I was wrong. If you print out the contents of the d matrix on each iteration for each method you can see that my method is not creating the same matrix. Sorry. I should have made certain the output matched your original method, but it isn't clear how I would have done that.

I still don't understand why you are doing this: d = Array[f, {4, 4}] twice.

It seems like there should be a simpler way of constructing that d matrix, even simpler than what I showed, but apparently I haven't figured out how you are using your subscripts.

At least you were able to get the flood of errors corrected and the semicolon versus {} working. Maybe that is enough for you.

THANK you Mr Bill for your help
I knew my mistake it was writing d matrix twice so when I removed one of them the output became the same of yours
Thank you very much

Now to test and see if either of the results are correct.

I tried to modify your code like this:

{m} = NDSolve...
{n} = NDSolve...
{l} = NDSolve...
{c} = NDSolve...
d = {{y1[1], y9[1], y17[1], y25[1]},
{y2[1], y10[1], y18[1], y26[1]},
{y5[1], y13[1], y21[1], y29[1]},
{y7[1], y15[1], y23[1], y31[1]}} /. Join[m, n, l, c];

The first 7 results are the same with my method and this modified method.
The 8th and 9th results appear to be reversed.
The 10th up to 20th results are the same.
The 21th and 22th results appear to be reversed.
etc.

Please test your code carefully to make certain the results are correct.

Mathematica is a software program used for mathematical and scientific computations. It is commonly used for tasks such as data analysis, visualization, and creating algorithms.

Why am I having trouble using Mathematica?

There could be several reasons why you are having trouble using Mathematica. It could be due to a lack of familiarity with the program, incorrect syntax or code, or compatibility issues with your operating system or hardware.

How can I improve my skills in Mathematica?

The best way to improve your skills in Mathematica is to practice using it regularly. You can also refer to online tutorials, textbooks, and seek help from experienced users or attend workshops or classes.

What are some common errors in Mathematica and how can I troubleshoot them?

Some common errors in Mathematica include syntax errors, missing or undefined variables, and incorrect function usage. To troubleshoot these errors, you can check your code for typos or missing elements, use the built-in functions to debug, and refer to the Mathematica documentation for guidance.

Can Mathematica be used for data analysis and visualization?

Yes, Mathematica has a wide range of built-in functions and tools specifically designed for data analysis and visualization. It also supports various data formats and can handle large datasets efficiently.
