I have several simultaneous equations to be solved. There are some parameters in these equations that have not been decided yet. I try to find out with which values of the parameters these equations could be solved. That is, sometimes they can not be solved to get explicit results. 1. Is it a good idea to randomly choose a set of values for the parameters (5 of them) and try to solve the equations, and if fail to get explicit answer, iterate this process? 2. How could I control the iterating progress, i.e., let the program to stop and print out the results once any explicit solution is achieved? 3. How could I suppress any output (error or warning messages) if the equations are not solvable and just let the iteration to go on? Thanks. Joe Chen
