This paper describes a method for progressing a set of n variables along a constraint curve in n- dimensional real space. The method uses the concept of interdependency of the variables and gives the reasons for doing this. Gradient methods for main taining the accuracy of curve following are azso discussed. The method is suitabze for analog com putation.
