Doron, One way to track the solution down is to look up in the Help Browser Built-in Functions > Lists and Matrices > Structure Manipulation > ... You will find that Flatten[u] does what you want. Incidentally, it's a good idea to limit queries to the essentials - they are then more likely to be answered. Here the problem is nothing to do with how u was constructed; so the following could have been used "How do I remove the inner parentheses from \!\({{1.3010426069826053`*^-14}, {5.21666666666668`}, {8.201960784313735`}, \ {9.636171310629523`}, {10.005218929677142`}}\) to get {1.3010426069826053`*^-14, 5.21666666666668`, 8.201960784313735`, \ 9.636171310629523`, 10.005218929677142`} ?" ( Even clearer would be "How do I remove the inner parentheses from {{a}, {b}, {c} } to get {a,b,c} ") Allan --------------------- Allan Hayes Mathematica Training and Consulting Leicester UK www.haystack.demon.co.uk hay at haystack.demon.co.uk Voice: +44 (0)116 271 4198 Fax: +44 (0)870 164 0565 "Doron" <klepachd at yahoo.com> wrote in message news:a192kf$7q3$1 at smc.vnet.net... > hello, i am interested in arranging a list : > for example -> > \!\(\* > RowBox[{ > RowBox[{"k", "=", > RowBox[{"(", GridBox[{ > {"1", "0", "0", "0", "0"}, > {\(-7.5\), "16", \(-8.5\), "0", "0"}, > {"0", \(-8.5\), "18", \(-9.5\), "0"}, > {"0", "0", \(-9.5\), "20", \(-10.5\)}, > {"0", "0", "0", \(-10.5\), "10.5"} > }], ")"}]}], ";", > RowBox[{"F", "=", > RowBox[{"(", GridBox[{ > {"0"}, > {"13.75"}, > {"11.75"}, > {"9.75"}, > {"3.875"} > }], ")"}]}], ";"}]\) > > In[43]:= > u=Inverse[k].F > > Out[43]= > \!\({{1.3010426069826053`*^-14}, {5.21666666666668`}, > {8.201960784313735`}, \ > {9.636171310629523`}, {10.005218929677142`}}\) > > How can I arrange this list to be of ordinary numbers{without the > inner parentheses : > {1.3010426069826053`*^-14, 5.21666666666668`, 8.201960784313735`, \ > 9.636171310629523`, 10.005218929677142`} >
