I've been trying to write a program to do matrix composition in my ClassPad 300.

The program first requests the number (n) of matrixes to be composed, it then enters a loop that will ask n times for the parameters (a,b,c,d) which the users provides. Afterwards, the for-loop must call a subroutine, "MatrixDH", which creates a special matrix with the given parameters; the output of this subfunction is A. Finally, the composition takes place: it should multiply the n matrixes created and print the result (Af). Here's what i have written so far:

[codebox]

Clear_a_z

[[1,0,0,0],[0,1,0,0],[0,0,1,0],[0,0,0,1]]=>Af

Input n

For 1=>i To n

Input a: Input b: Input c: Input d

MatrixDH(a,b,c,d)

Af*A=>Af

Next

PrintNatural Af[/codebox]

I get an "undefined variable" error while running this on my classpad... and i know i also get an error for the step Af*A=>Af

I forgot to mention before, these are supposed to be 4 by 4 matrixes... The program is meant to facilitate computations in the Denavit-Hartenberg direct kinematics expression.

Thanks a LOT for your help!!

Here the answer to your question
