Do we get any more information? As it is... 3 variables, 1 equation then... 5 variables, 2 equations 7 variables, 3 equations...and so forth. Don't we need to know how the b variables relate to each other or how the b variables relate to the c variables? Or something like that? Paul R
Where are all these numbers popping up from? You are given three arrays a, b, and c, with n elements each. Using the above set of equations, write a recursive function to fill in the elements 1 to n of array a, given the values in elements 1 to n in arrays b and c. So, using the equations, a<sub>n</sub> = c<sub>1</sub>/b<sub>1</sub>. And now, using a<sub>n</sub>, we get a<sub>n-1</sub> = (c<sub>2</sub> - a<sub>n</sub>b<sub>2</sub>) / b<sub>1</sub>. And so on... to get a<sub>1</sub>. Enjoy!

Woah, guys, chill out, I did not post this, some girl named Neha at a camp i was just at saw me on the forum, and posted it, not I I happen to like mathematical puzzels, as for the Greg, you just look like a moron now, "Oh no!, They exposed me now!" I bet if you look at my IP now, you can find some more cool stuff on me, say for instance IT IS NOT THE SAME ONE. Greg, get a brain.
