how to make the variables and utilize the coordinates.

Hello, i'm sorry for my english skill.

As a title, i wonder how to make variables and count those.

I'm making Layout Skill that count Channel of MOS by using skill language.

For example,

if two MOS that have w = 5um & l = 5um and two MOS that have w = 3um & l = 5um are placed in top level Layout Cellview.

I want to show that number of each MOS that include channel size in CIW.

CIW :

width = 5um & length = 5um, multi = 2ea

width = 3um & length = 5um, multi = 2ea

Presently, i got coordinate of each channel in top level.

But, i have trouble with utilzing coordinates...

How can i make variables by size and count those....?

below, i made a script by using skill language and wonder how to utilize coordinates.

    wcv = geGetWindowCellView()

    poly_overlaps = dbGetTrueOverlaps(wcv wcv~>bBox list("POLY" "drawing") 32 t);you got db id of all poly layer.
    poly_point = foreach(mapcar poly_overlap poly_overlaps
    TransBBoxToPoint(dbTransformBBox(ExtractLayerDB(poly_overlap)~>bBox dbGetInstTransform(poly_overlap)))
    )
