Hi,
Is it possible to access cell values with the getn-function directly?
I am currently using the following code, but that way i am getting a lot of variables to use.
win -a book1
aa$ = cell(4,42)$;
bb$ = cell(5,42)$;
.
.
getn
(name-1) aa$
(name-2) bb$
.
.
I tried
(name-1) cell(4,42)$
but it doesent work.
Thanks,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
There is no tutorial, but LabTalk Guide has the explanation of "substitution notations",
$(...) and %(...) in the LabTalk help:
LabTalk Programming> Guide> Language Fundamentals> Special Language Features> Substitution Notation
Or, the same online:
http://wiki.originlab.com/~originla/ltwiki/index.php?title=LabTalk:Substitution_Notation
Hope this helps.

Hi Hideo,
Thanks you very much. I am pretty new in scripting, so there are a lot of problems rising ;)
Is there any good tutorial for learning the notations, for example, like "$", "%" and "!" ???

Hi Stefan,
Sure, as LabTalk is an interpreter language, you can compose a variable name, etc.
in a string way. For example,aa1$="A";
aa2$="B";
aa3$="C";
for(ii=1; ii<=3; ii++) {
cell(ii,1)$ = aa$(ii)$;
};
should work. Please note that the $(...) notation to convert a number to a string.
Also, I used "ii" instead of "i" because it is a system variable in Origin.

Hi Hideo,
Thanks for your reply.
I thought about another way. Is it possible to have a changing/running variable, like aa1, aa2, aa3,...
and put such into a loop, like:
for(i=1; i<=20; i++)
{
cell(i,40)$ = aa(i)$;
};

Hi Stefan,
GetN command takes only variable names there as the obtained values from the interaction will be set to these variables.
One possible way you may consider is to define a macro such as:///////////////////////
def mycells {
aa$ = cell(%1,42)$;
bb$ = cell(%2,42)$;
getn (name-1) aa$ (name-2) bb$;
cell(%1,42)$=aa$;
cell(%2,42)$=bb$;
}
////////////////////Then, when you run the following macro calling command with arguments:
mycells 4 5;
Hope this helps.
