Dear all,
I try in mathematica to define a function using subscripted variables and subscripted parameters. It seems however that mathematica is not able to treat these subscripted variables as symbols. Indeed, when I use non subscripted variables and parameters it "works".
For example:
In: Function[##,Subscript[A, 2] Subscript[x, 1] ] & @@ {Subscript[A, 2]}
Out:Function::flpar: Parameter specification Subscript[A, 2] in Subscript[A, 2]\[Function]Subscript[A, 2] Subscript[x, 1] should be a symbol or a list of symbols.
But if I do:
In: Function[##,A x] & @@ {A}
Out: a\[Function]a x
(It is "working")
Any Idea?
Thanks in advance,
Camille
