Default d3 dict help - another item (f corr) - 10-16-2006 , 12:53 PM






F;D;6;];*;26

<6> of @record is unit of measure ..
<26> of @record is last_labr (decimal)

from pick LIST IM 6 26 ER
02803 EA 0.208350 208350
06767 EA
07758 GM 0.950000 950000
01812 EA 0.004000 4000
05776 GM 0.012125 12125
08749 EA 0.092060 92060

my guess is this is a BAD dict item .. but if anyone knows please let
me know

thanks

This makes no sense.

If I read this right, it is (( DATE() >= UnitofMeasure ) *
undefined)...throw it away, and show attr 26. Sure you transcribed it right?
The listing is correct as the F computes!

Please describe what you're trying to compute. Also, why use don't you use
Algebraic notation instead of F?

Ahhh... ] means >=
I've been trying to figure out why that ] character is digested by the
f-correl & now I know,
Thanks Chandru.
As for David's conversion perhaps it a dictionary thats been copied
from another file accidently? I've had many of those.
If Attr 6 was a date and the order was changed thus...

F;D;6;];26;*

It would make sense comparing a date with today, if greater or equal it
would return the value of attr 26 otherwise it would return 0.

Shame on you telling someone to use algebraic, F-correls are so much
more FUN ;-)
