ok. i see my mistake now. now that's been solved. now I have solve routine bringing back numbers like... {{y[0] == -0.4018557514460829 - 1.486847345781845*I, x[0] == 0.5 + 1.8499764410878863*I, z[0] == 0.2124216262618104 + 0.78595000832385*I}, {y[0] == -0.4018557514460829 + 1.486847345781845*I, x[0] == 0.5 - 1.849976441087886*I, z[0] == 0.2124216262618104 - 0.7859500083238501*I}} what does that mean? why all those imagiinary numbers? is that correct? and Chop doesn't get rid of them. maybe they are actual solutions? sean_incali at yahoo.com (sean kim) wrote in message news:<c33de2$ftc$1 at smc.vnet.net>... > Hello Group. > > I was playing around with lorenz system again.
