Can I use a variable as interpolation point in the value function?

maaz2020

Hi

I'm trying to setup the interpolation point of the value function from a variable, I've tried this but it doesn't work:

any idea on how I can achieve this?

Thanks

  • Dear maaz2020,

    If you tried this on the Calculator, did you happen to make sure the context of the calculator is pointing to your simulation directory results? I am concerned the Calculator does not know the value of VAR("myvar") and hence cannot perform the interpolation. You might be able to verify this in the Calculator by entering VAR("myvar") to verify that it has the expected value.

    Otherwise, if my comments do not apply to your context, might you provide a bit more information on the specific steps you are using and any messages in your CIW indicating the error?

    My guess is that this is something to do with the VAR() returning a waveform, but I've not done the experiments to determine which versions this does or doesn't work in. It really needs some more info to help guide any investigation:

    1. Which IC sub-version are you using (Help->About tells you this)?
    2. Which ADE are you using? L? XL? Explorer? Assembler?
    3. Is this a single simulation or are. you performing sweeps?

    Rather than doing a general hunt around and checking across lots of versions to identify what your problem might be, some specific information tends to focus the mind (and the time) of anyone investigating this.
