Hi,

a Do Loop never returns anything as long as you don't use return. You
can find this information in the "MORE INFORMATION" section of the help
of Do.

However, the assignment of w[n][k] is done. Just check what ?w gives.

If you want to "see" the values of your assignment explicitely, you
could just use a Table:

n = 5;
Table[w[n][k] = 
  Exp[z0[n][k]^2] Sqrt[
    Pi] 2^(n - 1) n!/(n HermiteH[n - 1, z0[n][k]])^2, {k, n}]

Hope this helps,

Cheers
Patrick
