Need Help, Error in for loop

I have to find the root of an equation, but I get an error saying 'Error using * , and also an error in line 12 but.
T=1.2;
P=(0:2:10);
A=0.45724.*(P/T.^2).*(1+0.392.*(1-T.^0.5)).^2;
B=0.0778.*(P/T);
f=@(Z) Z.^3-(1-B).*Z.^2+(A-B.*2-3.*B.^2).*Z-(A.*B-B.^2-B.^3);
xl=0;
xu=6;
xm=0;
maxiter=15;
for i=1:maxiter;
xold=xm;
if f(xm)*f(xu)<0; %<-- Line 12
xl=xm;
else
xu=xm;
end
xm=(xu+xl)/2;
ea=abs((xm-xold)/xm);
xold=xm;
end

You have
P=(0:2:10);
so P is a vector.
B=0.0778.*(P/T);
B involves P, so B is a vector.
f=@(Z) Z.^3-(1-B).*Z.^2+(A-B.*2-3.*B.^2).*Z-(A.*B-B.^2-B.^3);
f(Z) involves B, so f(Z) is a vector.
Your code is expecting f(Z) to be a scalar.

Hi CM
got your code to work, but not sure the result is what you expect, please confirm
T=1.2;
maxiter=15;
P=[0:2:10];
% P=linspace(0,10,maxiter)
A=0.45724.*(P/T).^2.*(1+0.392.*(1-T.^0.5)).^2;
B=0.0778.*(P/T);
f=@(Z,A,B) Z^3-(1-B)*Z^2+(A-B*2-3*B^2)*Z-(A*B-B^2-B^3);
% Y=Z^3-(1-B)*Z^2+(A-B*2-3*B^2)*Z-(A*B-B^2-B^3);
xl=0;
xu=6;
xm=0;
for i=1:maxiter;
xold=xm;
if f(xm,A,B)*f(xu,A,B)<0; %<-- Line 12
xl=xm;
else
xu=xm;
end
xm=(xu+xl)/2;
ea=abs((xm-xold)/xm);
xold=xm;
end
I have added as comment the lines
P=linspace(0,10,maxiter)
Y=Z^3-(1-B)*Z^2+(A-B*2-3*B^2)*Z-(A*B-B^2-B^3);
because there may be a way to simplify, remove at least the for loop.
