Sure but what you've got to provide me is the AFL
formula that I'll put into the file:
<FONT
face=Tahoma size=2>"C:\Program
Files\AmiBroker\IncludeFiles\movingaverage.afl"
<FONT
face=Tahoma size=2>All the include does is allow you to have some AFL code
stored in a file that become incorportated into the rest of the formula where
the include statement is. Think of that "included" AFL as
invisible.
For instance
- If I have the attached formula All Code In One File.afl and I decide that I
don't need to keep seeing all of that code for the equity calculations in my
AA window every time - it just gets in the way - I would break the code into 2
pieces: Main Code In One File.afl and EquityCalcsInSeparateFile.Afl.
The line
#Include "C:\Program
Files\Amibroker\IncludeFiles\EquityCalcsInSeparateFile.Afl" will cause AB to
include that code in my Main Code WHEN AB RUNS THE FORMULA. But I don't
ever see it in the AA window.
That's as good
an explanation as I can muster.
Hope its
enough!

10 uses for the #IncludeDingo, Ok...Could you
supply a sample output using this moving average and the#include function.
I am still lost on how to use this #include function. TIA

#Include Anthony, WHen you use the include you never get to
see the code in the AA window.Amibroker reads it internally when it runs
your formula. This is how youcan save space in the AA window.
The code that is "included" should havebeen thoroughly tested and error
free. d -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Faragasso

#Include You create a directory in your AmiBroker directory that is
called "IncludeFiles", you copy all your include files to that directory.
Then to read the include file code into your system you insert this line:
#include "C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\IncludeFiles\movingaverage.afl";

pre-proccessor yet...mainly I do not know how.... Say I
have a file called Movingaverage....( movingaverage=ma(c,28) ).....Now
I want to use this in some other formula....so I write the following:
#include "C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\AFL\movingaverage.afl"
Now What do I do ?? Thank you Anthony

Subject: [amibroker] 10 uses for the #Include Hello, The
#include does not enhance processing power or provide additional
functions. I substitute it with the full code after development or for
performance testing. However it is extremely handy for: 1) Making
code more readable during development by hiding a major part that doesn't
require any more work. Working on a program of a few hundred lines and
scrolling back and forth, from begin to end, doesn't make for pleasant
working. Breaking it up into modules will speed up you work.
2) During development, when working with loops, you can hide the entire
body of the loop so that you can see the begin and the end of the loop and
work on the code in those areas. For quick temporary hiding of code
sections use a standard name like Mod1, Mod2, etc. 3) I plot
equity and other indicators from the backtester using the Equity button, i
find this easier than workingfrom two formula windows. Most indicators
contain completed code so they canvery conveniently be put into an
#Include file, so as not to clutter up the systems code. Fred's equity
code is a nice example that you might want to have in an Include
file. 4) Some of my systems use many calibration constants, a
long line of 100 short statements messes up the code and makes it harder
to work with. Placing the assignments in an include file hides them nicely
and makes it very easy to switch constants by commenting out oneor
another include 5) During development I use ,any AddCollumn
statements,10, 20, even more. In a major project it is well worth to
develop such debugging tools and leave them in the code. Simply uncomment
them when you need them... 6) Include files can be used to
"attach" documentation to a program without cluttering the window and
using up a lot of space. Sometimesit is handy to use the Indicator
formula window (if not used) to keep notes in an Include file.
7) Scripts, if used, are pretty well stand-alone pieces of code and it is
nice to hide them from view. 8) If you use pattern recognition
and work with long lists of patterns or Candle stick patterns, you can
define those in an include file. 9) If you want to translate
Status("StockNum") to a literal string ("MSFT") and you work the N100,
you'll need a 100 statements that mess up your code. Also since this type
of code can be called from many other programs it is nice to have it self
contained. 10) You can pass parameters to Include files (as needed
in9 above) by reserving a suitable variable name for Include files ,or
as I do, i give the include file a long name that tells me what it expects
and what it returns. For example: N100Number-n-ToTicker-T.afl this files
expectsa pointer named "n" to be defined before using the #Include and
returns the Ticker name-string in "T". I define n before the include and
use the string T after it. Easy? 11) I know: I can't count!
Some standard Param() applications that are needed for debugging but not
in the final version - anInclude may be useful
here.
