Hi,
I wish to loop through the YR formula, in pic below, for values of z being 0,0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8,1.0,1.2,1.4,1.589.
My progress so far is to produce an array evenly spaced z values and if the 1.0001 factor is not applied to hc_full then the last element of the z array is 1.362, rather than 1.589.
It is obvious to me that I have some missing skill here, please throw me some hints.
Regards, Tim

Hi Jean,
Thank you for the example file, I will study this for better understanding.
I have longer arrays to create also so wish to automate; if I make z as in the pic or with equal spacing, is there a means of appending the final (1.589) value to the end of the array?

I do not see any problem.

If you have longer array, equally spaced => as easy.
Naturally, if not equally spaced, must be manual.

... if they are not equally spaced, but if there is a bit
of logic in the spacing, we can select from a list that
can be made/refactored as you wish at will from a little
counter loop.

Jean,
Thank you for the counter loop example, this will stretch my programming comprehension.
CBG,
Thank you for typing the work from scratch, and showing no issue with the 1.589 value.
I redefined hc_full immediately above the z range call and then the output changed to match your results.
The hc_full is defined with an if statement.
The 1.589 value is absent from the z range.
The hc_full is redefined directly above the z range call (to override the value produced by the if statement) and the 1.589 value is now present in the z range.
Have I contravened a working principle in some way?

Redefining hc_full using hc_full:=hc_full also fixes the z range array.

Maybe not ? work sheet would help and no help.
Smath 6179 does not take index on the RHS.

for(3)-loops with initial, second and maximum value aren't robust if floating point values are specified. The internal representation of such numbers may differ from what is displayed due to round-off.
Due to this it is not good programming style to test the equality of two floating point numbers without specifying a tolerance. If you want to be safe, you either introduce such a tolerance or you generate the list of values based on a list of integers.
It should be possible to modify for(3) such that the tolerance is generated as a fraction of the difference between first and second value.

True Martin: that damned floating point often creates a very small imaginary.

In the context of this topic, there was an example in Mathcad 8.
