I appreciate all your feedback for this programming project I have been working on. But, I just wanted to let you know that in then end I just simplifed the solution I was looking for. Basically, created two neural networks for each output I was looking for. It seems to me that a single network of complexity to recognize to functions such that would be larger than I needed/wanted. The calculations for weight, epochs, etc... increased so much when I made the networks bigger. Actually, creating separate networks and then training them cut down on time.

I came to this conclusion when I finally gave in and starting using Matlab for the Neural Network Toolbox that my school has. When I could view the output and easily graph it. The network needed would be too huge for my needs.

I actually, when I have the time, would like to print out your code and really try to understand your implementation. This is something I have recently become interested in since I started taking a class on the subject. Its something I would to learn further and perhaps do my master's project (not thesis) on.

Thank you again for your help and the excellent code you have written.

Regards,
JT Archie
