I'm new to Mathematica and I want to create some animations. I tried something like this: sub = {{a, 1}, {a^2, 1}} Animate[Graphics[{Line[{{0, 0}, sub[[1]]}]}], {a, -1, 1}] and Mathematica give me an error. This error ( Coordinate {a, 1} should be a pair of numbers, or a Scaled or Offset form.) is not helpful. I know that I can fix this by changing sub[[1]] to {a,1}, but this is not a great solution. I have several places in the actual Animate command that use sub[[1]] (some in conjunction with a Table command) and it would be painful to do all of the replacing and rewriting. How can I make something like this work? I suspect that I'm missing something simple.... Thanks in advance! Will
