Hello, here is another question I could'nt find the asnwer on the web, altough I guess it's very elementary. Here is my problem. Assume I want to solve an implicit equation on two variables : x_0 = _2, y_0 = 0 (x_{n+1},y_{n+1}) = sol(n/10,x_n,y_n) for n = 1..10 where f cannot be defined explicitely but is given by something like (I give a silly exemple): f[x_, a_] := -(x - a)^3 + (x - a) sol[a_?NumericQ, b_?NumericQ,c_?NumericQ] := FindRoot[{f[x, a], x + y}, {x, b}, {y, c}] What is the way to write this using RecurrenceTable and computing sol[n/10,x[n],y[n]] only once ? (as in the real life the rootsearching is longer than above) ? Any help would be very welcome. Thank you very much in advance. Best regards, Victor
