#math() and variables
|
my main problem is with lines like the following:
#MATH qsec3 @qtime260
why is the modulus expression not functioning for me? just qtime2 is going into qsec3, and is getting turned into a class folder.. same thing has happened with a few other mathematic symbols as well in other lines of code.. just the modulus one thats bugging me the most though.

Just tested this in 6.25a (beta) and it works for me. Might be specific to your version but I've never heard of anybody else having this problem.
I would make sure that @qtime2 is definitely a number before running the command, but even if it's not I can't see why it would behave as you described.

Just tested it in 6.16 and it worked fine. However, since you don't have braces around @qtime260, if you left a space before the (or have one included at the end of the variable) it would be interpreted as the next parameter which would be the class. Quickest fix would be to put braces around it
#MATH qsec3 {@qtime260}

Perhaps the help file should be updated that whitespace confuses #math.

Wow, threadromancy :O Is this still an issue? You can add a comment to the #math entry in the knowledgebase if it is.
