ContMult

Creates a new continuous variable with values contVar[i]*numberToMultiply, returns a reference to the new variable.

Syntax

ContMult(contVar, numberToMultiply)

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
contVar	variableReference	Reference to the variable.
numberToMultiply	number	The result values will be contVar[i]*numberToMultiply

Return

Creates a new continuous variable with values contVar[i]*numberToMultiply, returns a reference to the new variable.

Examples

Python

import nex
doc = nex.GetActiveDocument()
coeff = -1.0
doc["invertedFP01"] = nex.ContMult(doc["FP01"], coeff)

# you can also use arithmetic operations on continuous variables:
doc["average of FP01 and FP02"] = ( doc["FP01"] + doc["FP02"] ) / 2

NexScript

doc = GetActiveDocument()
coeff = -1.0
doc["invertedFP01"] = ContMult(doc["FP01"], coeff)
