Defining variables in the context of implicit functions in java

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on defining variables within implicit functions in Java, specifically focusing on solving for a variable (px) when all other values are known. The user expressed difficulty in rearranging the function to isolate px and sought a method for Java to compute this value directly. A referenced tool, TK Solver, allows users to input all variables except one and receive the missing value, which the user found effective for approximations. The conversation highlights the need for tools that facilitate solving implicit equations in programming.

Sorry for the disturbance,

So I have been looking (without success) for a way to define a variable within an implicit function in Java. What I really mean by this is I have the equation:

In this function my program will give me all of the values except for px. I have tried rearranging the function in terms of px unsuccessfully (I'm not even sure if this is possible). Either way, it would be much easier for me to simply type in the function as it is and have Java figure out what the value of the variable I am looking for is. I was wondering if anyone knew how to do that.

Thanks for reading,

Seems solvable (java reference ) .

I used this cool tool a while back called TK Solver. You give it everything but 1 variable and it returned that answer magically http://www.uts.com/ItemDetails.asp?ItemID=0100-50-0010-00.

I found a way around the issue since I'm allowed to approximate. The software you mentioned is definitely interesting and I think I will take a look at it as I begin my next project. Thanks!
