in reply to Re^2: Bad While Loop
in thread Bad While Loop

lets see

$A = ($a*($p1-$p2) + $b*($pT-$p1)/(-2)); $B = ($p1*($a*($p2-$p1) + $b*($pT-$p1)-$k*$d2-$d1i*$k));

In your script $p1 = $p2, so this is the same as:

$A = -0.5*$b*($pT-$p1); $B = $b*($pT-$p1)-$k*($d2-$d1i);

What's the purpose of the var $p2?. Maybe you want to say:

$p2 = $p1; $p1 += .01;

Instead

 $p1 += .01; $p2 = $p1; ?

    This was intentional. Later on in this project I'll be looking at what happens when p1 =/= p2, but for this case they are the same.
