The expression ``other functional equation'' refers to the functional equation NEWLINE\[NEWLINE f(x+y)-f(x-y)=2g(x)h(y)\tag{1} NEWLINE\]NEWLINE which was first studied by d'Alembert in connection with the problem of vibrating strings. In the paper, the authors investigate equation (\(1\)) in an abstract setting and find formulas for the continuous complex-valued solutions defined on a topological group generated by its squares and its center.
