Jose, Using rules you could do this: In[157]:= data = {{x, y}, {x1, y1}, {x2, y2}, {x3, y3}} Out[157]= {{x, y}, {x1, y1}, {x2, y2}, {x3, y3}} In[158]:= data1 = data /. {x_, y_} -> {x, 1/y} Out[158]= {{x, 1/y}, {x1, 1/y1}, {x2, 1/y2}, {x3, 1/y3}} This uses the ReplaceAll (/.) command (see section 2.4.1 in The Mathematica Book).
