    Hi,

     

    Is it possible to use a variable to return an operator (or also a string).  Example of part of code below:

    IF opVar = 1 THEN
myOperator = > 
ELSIF opVar = 2 THEN
myOperator = <

ENDIF

    For this opVAR would be a variable set in ‘Variable optimization’ and myOperator could be used elsewhere in the code where I wanted to check different results based on less than or greater than.

    Thanks

    Hi Paul
    Great question – math operators can’t be used as variables.

    You could try and code the conditions to +1 or -1 from the myoperator variable based on prior conditions and take it from there. If that makes sense.

    Cheers
