Formulas can also be displayed in table form. This makes editing long and/or complicated algorithms much faster.
In principle, both options are available: You can create a completely new algorithm in table form or edit existing algorithms.
Call up the table of characteristics [Algorithm-Table] by clicking on the button.
Example (lines marked in red in the figure above)
If ENTL equals 4 and SWITCH equals 3 and SWITCH2 equals 10, then IDENTL equals E2.
The algorithm contains only one IF/ELSEIF/ELSE block. IF is mandatory.
Each IF or ELSEIF only uses AND or OR for the entire condition. A mixture of OR and AND is not permitted!
The conditions use EQ (equal), NEQ (unequal), LT (less), LE (less equal), GT (greater), GE (greater equal) and have one side as a variable and the other as a constant value.
LT, LE, GT, GE are either used for a single value or as a pair for an upper/lower limit.
The assigned value is a constant number or a constant string or a single variable (subforms are currently not supported)
If the algorithm cannot be parsed, a message appears instead of the dialog.
