% Calculate the vapor Pressure of n-heptane using SRK-EOS

n = n+1;
for i=1:5

Basically in this code I am trying to assume a pressure 'Pn' to calculate the results which satisfy this relation (Error<10^-4) if this satisfy's then our assume pressure is right else if not then we use the relation P(n+1) = Pn*(Phil/Phiv) to caluclate another pressure and update the above pressure (previously assume) with this one. I have error with this and need advice please help

Pythagorean

it's a very small chance people will read that much code and do that much thinking for you. Try to narrow down your specific theoretical or technical problem. Try debugging your code a little bit to chase the source down; you might even solve the problem if you spend some time trying to understand it before you ask.

How to update the previously Assume pressure with new one. thats the main question
