Does this not indicate the problem clearly enough? What is at Line 86, column 16? It is looking for a matrix named ALPHA, which does not exist.

You have a typo in the program.

aplha=5;

should be

alpha=5;

Better post it at IML forum. Maybe you want this :

x=4/((1-u)**(1/alpha));
-->
x=4/((1-u)##(1/alpha));
