thank u.

Hi Richard,
Adding the function to the System folder will not automatically make it available for use in other OC files. You must also prototype in each file...
double Heavyside(double);

Or you can use Code Builder to establish Heavyside function thus,
double Heavyside(double x)
{if (x<0) return 0;
else return 1;}
and then put that function in the Systems directory (located on the left side of Code Builder).
That way the Heavyside function is started whenever you load Origin, and you can use it whenever you want. (You don't need to link it to another function, which you may not always want to use.)

The compiler is looking for an OriginC function called h(x) which doesn't exist. This should work assuming (....) is a sensible expression...
double h = 0;
if( x>0 ) h = 1;
y = (....)*h;
It's even easier than that...
if( x<0 ) y = 0;
else y = (....);

actually, the problem isn't to set a column value, but im doing a non linear curve fit, so i have to put an analytical expression in which there is the heavyside function, that's why i want to program this function
i did:
if (x<0) h(x)=0;
else h(x)=1;
y=(......)*h(x);
but it doesn't want to compile,
that's the main problem
thanks for help. |

As far as I know, Heaviside is merely the step function...
H(x) = 0 (x<0)
H(x) = 1 (x>0)
Programming example:
If column A contains the X values you can fill column B with Heaviside values like this...
col(B) = col(A) > 0 ? 1 : 0;
