I've checked this error on many pages and tried different solutions, but it still doesn't work. The problem actually arises from the third constraint (a <= 0.02). When I place a == 0.02, it gives an output, but I'm not sure if this output is correct. Anyway, why shouldn't it give me the output when a <= 0.02?
