The program will alert you if the system of equations you entered is legal and will then block the equations to solve them more quickly.</div><div><br></div><div>Jeff</div><div><br></div><div>Jeff Thornton</div><div>TESS<br><br><br></div><div><br>On Oct 26, 2012, at 5:49 AM, Baboo Gowreesunker <<a href="mailto:Baboo.Gowreesunker@brunel.ac.uk">Baboo.Gowreesunker@brunel.ac.uk</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><div></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>
