Hi, thanks a lot for your help! It seems to work like that, thanks!
Haven't succeeded to run this because I don't seem to get my if-
statements correct either. The error message i get is "Error 6.
Condition in IF, WHILE, FOR statements has to be Numeric or Boolean
type. You can not use array here, please use [] (array subscript
operator) to access array elements".. :(
Hopefully someone can solve this for me, I tried to do it in two ways
but haven't really got it right.. :(
/********CODE Snippet
//Averages of three HHVs and LLVs
HHavg=(HHA+HHB+HHC/3);
LLavg=(LLA+LLB+LLC/3);
//Calculate 5% of HHV, both 5% more and 5% less
HHmin=(HHV(H,30) * 0.95);
HHmax=(HHV(H,30) * 1.05);
LLmin=(LLV(L,30) * 0.95);
LLmax=(LLV(L,30) * 1.05);
//Now check to see if the averages of the three HHVs and
//LLVs are not deviating too much from the min and max values,
//I chose 5% as example of maximum deviation.
//HHAvg is between HHV - 5% and HHV + 5%
//LLAvg is between LLV - 5% and LLV + 5%
//I tried to make this like a nested if-statement
//HChannel is set as False to begin with...
HChannel=False;
if (HHavg > HHmin) {
if (HHavg < HHmax) {
if (LLavg > LLmin) {
if (LLavg < LLmax) {
hChannel=True; }
} } }
//Finally the filter for the exploration
Filter=hChannel=True;
