Hi all, I've given up on another system and I have a Mathematica question for you. Please bare with me as this is the first time I'm using Mathematica for anything else besides plotting. Here is my program so far: n = 1; m = 10; f[x_] := Sin[x*Pi]; l = 0; t = 0; a = 1; h = 0.1; k = 0.01; LAMDA = a*a*k/(h*h); w = {T}; count = 1; Do[w = Append[w, f[count*h]]; count++, {m - 1}]; w A1 = {0}; count = 0; Do[A1 = Append[A1, 1 + 2*LAMDA]; count++, {m}]; count; A1 = Drop[A1, 1]; A2 = {0}; Do[A2 = Append[A2, -LAMDA], {m - 1}]; A2 = Drop[A2, 1]; A = MatrixForm[ DiagonalMatrix[A2, -1] + DiagonalMatrix[A1] + DiagonalMatrix[A2, 1]]; Ainv = Inverse[A]; count = 0; Do[wN = Evaluate[A.w]; Print["W[", count, "]: ", wN]; w = wN; count++, {n}]; This gives the following output: the Matrix "A" dot the vector "w" If I Select the output and choose "Evaluate in Place/Cell" the following output is shown: {-0.30901699437494734`, 0.3392657308323691`, 0.6453217681275247`, \ 0.8882092145372158`, 1.0441525545105133`, 1.0978869674096932`, \ 1.0441525545105133`, 0.8882092145372158`, 0.6453217681275247`, \ 0.33926573083236944`} How can I force: wN = Evaluate[A.w] to always be fully evaluated? Even though I have Evaluate[%] it still shows the full explicit answer. I want to flatten/reduce the the result. Everything I've tried so far does not work. Any ideas? Kind Regards, Miguel
