Parameter |
Description |
n |
An integer from 1 to 100. This is the unique identifier for the numeric variable. |
x |
The value stored in the numeric variable. This can be any numeric expression. |
The default value of a new NVAR is not always 0. For this reason, it is recommended that you initialize each NVAR in your template by setting it to a specific value (such as 0) at the beginning of the template. You can initialize specific NVARs or initialize all NVARs and SVARs.
Example:
NVAR 3 = PI |
Stores the value of PI in variable 3. |
NVAR 3 |
Returns the value of PI. |
Example:
NVAR 1 = (1+2) |
Stores the value 3 in variable 1. |
NVAR 1 |
Returns 3. |
Example:
NVAR 22 = [D1] |
Stores the numeric value of cell [D1] in variable 22. |
NVAR 22 = ( NVAR 22 + 1) |
Increments the value of variable 22 by 1. (Adds 1 to the current value of variable 22 and stores this new value in variable 22.) |
NVAR 22 |
Returns the value of variable 22. (Returns the numeric value of [D1] plus 1.) |
