Hi to all,

Although I am registered since 2014, I only found some time recently to "play" with SMATH.

First of all, I would like to thank Andrey, the man with a magic brain, for his huge work ;-)
Smath is a great tool and I plan to use it for a teaching purpose.

To the point now. I have attached an example with a matrix calculation where Smath math gives me
a "syntax error". I would like to understand what is going wrong.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Mikaël

That's because you try to assign the product not to a variable, but to a matrix. Try replacing leftmost part (before :=) to some variable. It will hold the resulting matrix.

Also, you may avoid constructs like "D2R", if you just use degree units.

Hello Mike,

Thanks for the tip ! This works fine indeed.

Yes, using the units would be certainly a better idea to avoid my "old" constructions. I'll explore the units in the next days.

Best regards,
Mikaël

This Mathcad syntax must work since 5953.

Hi Mike,

Good news. Thanks for this useful information ! I'am still working with the 0.98.5935
and I'll try the 5953 soon...

Best regards,

Mikaël
