reciprocal of a formula

[nigeltorque]

Hi everybody 

i have a simple question but i can't find a valid solution 😄

i have a formula (as a string type) in this form: y = a0 + a1x1 + a2x2 +.. now i just need to determinate the reciprocal and put it in this form: 

y = 1/(a0 + a1x1 + a2x2 +..) ; i don't need a result, just obtein this form because after i have to implement this function in labview, but all the .vi i find in the Scripts & Formulas palette return a result. 

Does anyone have an idea which is a possible solution??

Thanks

Well, if you just want to edit the formula as string, all you need are simple string manipulations. For example you could search for "= ", insert the string "1/(" after it, and append the string ")" at the end.

(LabVIEW does not do symbolic math. Maybe you have some misconceptions.)

Uhm.. ok! string manipulation... i will take this way!!
