Finding the last value of a signal in a trasient simulation ended by $finish_current_analysis

Hi,

I have seen this post:

https://community.cadence.com/cadence_technology_forums/f/custom-ic-skill/23266/how-to-find-the-final-time-value-of-a-signal#

but I wanted to check if there's another solution.

Basically, I am using $finish_current_analysis to exit from a transient run when some checks are met. I know I can use autostop with some MDL code to calculate the final value, but I am looking if there's a much simpler solution in Assembler that I can invoke without improving my testbench.

Thank you.

For some time there's been a built-in function in the calculator called lastVal() which does this (there's firstVal() too). So you could use lastVal(VT("/someSignal")) to find the final time value.
