Objective of the project:

To solve a simultaneous equation consisting of two linear equations using Matrices, the formula:

                     X = A^-1 * B

Where A is the matrix consisting of the coefficants of the two equations, B is the matrix consisting of the result of the two equations, and X is the matrix consisting of the two variables, x and y.

Language used: HTML and JavaScript in a single file.

The problem:

My first version of the project is here as follows:

When I open it in my browser (Google Chrome latest version), the HTML part works as expected, however, when I click the "Solve" button, it doesn't do anything.

So I tried to use another approach:

But the results are still the same (HTML working fine whereas clicking the "Solve" button does nothing).

Can anyone kindly spend a little bit of their times and try to provide me with a solution to this problem.

Your efforts, your solutions , will be highly appreciated. :-)

P.S : The code is actually not that big.

The problem is that your function is called "multiply2d*1d". The '*' character is not allowed inside a name in js. For more rules see: What characters are valid for JavaScript variable names?

Here a working fiddle (I just changed the function name):
