Dimitris,
"...My intension was to present some AFL techniques, not to cover
this [vast] EW story. I hope it was clear from the beginning."
Absolutely clear AND appropriate! This has been EXACTLY the kind of
guidance I was hoping to participate in. You've done a marvelous job
of teaching 'technique' to me (and certainly others as well). In
general, I'm a pretty proficient programmer myself (with VB, assembly
languages, etc.), but I'm relatively new to AmiBroker and still on
the 'learning curve' for becoming proficient with the AFL language.
I best learn by example, and it only takes one good 'prototype'
example for me to 'get the idea'. This EW exercise has been a
perfect task to learn from, and your intention has been well served.
I'll now be able to program and create the EW-oriented design I
envision and want to explore. Your 'foundation' has been extremely
helpful!
"... It is important to make the code shorter, especially if you go to
more detailed EW analysis."
Yes, I definitely agree! And this would apply to almost ANY
application of significant complexity. Hence, any 'shortcut' and
efficient coding methods are quite welcomed....
Just a brief question regarding the latest code modification: is
there any reason to prefer "EnableScript("Jscript");"
over "EnableScript("VBscript");"? Could using 'VBscript' work just
as well?
"... I think my contribution is complete at this point."
Yes! You've done FAR MORE than what I expected, and I am SO grateful
for this. I have really learned a great deal from your 'prototype'
implementation and presentation. Again, thank you SO, SO MUCH for
your sharing and help with this EW exercise. You are ONE GREAT
GUY!!! (;->)
