I am trying to find a solution to a set of three equations in three
variables using FindInstance. Since I would like the computation to
abort when it is taking too long, I wrapped it in TimeConstrained.
However, the computation fails to abort, and even pressing Alt-. does
not help. Appreciate any help. Thanks.
My code is as follows, on Mathematica 8.
eqnA = -0.41593500000000005*(1 - t)*(1 - u)*(1 - v) -
0.5155109999999999*t*(1 - u)*(1 - v) - 0.415706*(1 - t)*u*(1 - v) -
