parameter
Defines a DOE parameter.
Syntax
parameter(varname, label, nominal, min, max)
or
parameter(varname, label, nominal, str1, str2, str3,...)
Input
- varname
- The parameter name, also the name of the Templex variable associated with it.
- label
- The label of the parameter.
- nominal
- The default parameter value, either a number or a string, depending upon the parameter type.
- min
- The minimum parameter value.
- max
- The maximum parameter value.
- str1, str2, …
- A list of string values.
Example
- Example 1
- Template:
{parameter (thickness, "Thickness",1.0, 0.8, 1.4)} {thickness}
- Example 2
- Template:
{parameter(name, "Name", "Anonymous", "Abel", "Baker", "Charley")} {name}
Comments
parameter
has the effect of creating a Templex variable of name
varname and setting it to the nominal value. If used in DOE
optimization, parameter defines a range of values for an
optimization parameter.
There are two forms of this statement: one for numeric values and one for strings. A numeric parameter is defined by a range of values, while a string parameter is defined by a list.
