    Talking

    Watch this:

    Example

    i1*r1+i3*r3-u1=0
    i2*r2+i3+r3+u2=0

    The unknown varibles are i1, i2, i3.

    Does anyone know how to make a procedure which
    calculates the unknown varibles.

    If it's possible the program should give an output
    of its calculation progress. - Step to step.

    Any suggestions?

    thx, vbzero

    i1*r1+i3*r3-u1=0
    i2*r2+i3+r3+u2=0

    The unknown varibles are i1, i2, i3.
    So you know both u1 and u2?
    What about r1, r2 and r3?

    You have 2 equations and 8 variables...


    If u1, u2, r1, r2 and r3 are known then why not state them as constant values and re-arrange the algorithms.

    All variables are known except i1, i2, i3.

    The other variables are known but depend on the
    user's input. (Maybe there are some TextBoxes to
    set the values)

    You need 3 equations to solve 3 unknown variables.

    i3 is proberly also known:

    i3=i1+i2

    - so you can say i1+i2 instead i3

    In that case

    Code:
              i3 - i1 - i2 = 0
    i1 * r1 + i3 * r3 - u1 = 0
    i2 * r2 + i3 + r3 + u2 = 0
    You have 3 equations.
