Dear Berend, Thankyou very much indeed for you reply. By taking help from your previous reply @ http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Simultaneous-equations-td2524645.html i was able to generate the following loop for the calculation of x=x[1] and y=x[2].
fun <- function(x) { f <- numeric(length(x)) # read as: f[1] <- 1-0.514-(gamma(1/x[1])*gamma(2/x[1]-1/x[2]))/(gamma(2/x[1])*gamma(1/x[1]-1/x[2])) f[2] <- 0.57- (gamma(1/x[1]-1/x[2])/gamma(1/x[1])-3*gamma(2/x[1]-1/x[2])/gamma(2/x[1])+2*gamma(3/x[1]-1/x[2])/gamma(3/x[1]))/(gamma(1/x[1]-1/x[2])/gamma(1 /x[1])-gamma(2/x[1]-1/x[2])/gamma(2/x[1])) f } startx <- c(0.1,0.15) # start the answer search here answers<-as.data.frame(nleqslv(startx,fun)) answers What i cant understand is the concept involved for setting "startx". my x[1] should always be smaller than x[2] and they both should be less than 1. how can i demonstrate it to startx command line? thanks for your help. I m grateful.
