matrix manipulation question

matrix manipulation question

matrix manipulation question

(OP)
Can the upper limit of one matrix be subtracted from the lower limit of another martix.

EX.

Matrix1--- a max
           a nominal
           a min
Matrix2--- b max
           b nominal
           b min

I would like to get the result of b max - a min

Is this possible?

Right now the result that I get is the difference of each:
a max -b max
a nominal - b nominal
a min - b min

My mathcad skills are small.  Any help would be appreciated.

 

RE: matrix manipulation question

(OP)
Thanks for the help.  I found what I was looking for.

The max(a,b,c..) and min(a,b,c...) calculates what I was trying to accomplish.  I ended up finding it in the help file.

Ex.

max(matrix b) - min(matrix a)
