TELITAB# returns a TeLiTab based on a list of parameters

Syntax

  1. TELITAB#(Mode%=0 or Mode%=1,InpVar)
  2. TELITAB#(@Object)

Arguments

Remarks

  1. When you want to create TeLiTab documents inside objects, the Mode% is not the only important choice to determine whether one TeLiTab is made or a TeLiTab is made for each case. When you use InpVar without quotes in the TeLiTab syntax for the goal parameter in an object and InpVar is a multi case parameter in the object, Quaestor will conclude that the TeLiTab depends on the multi-case parameter in the object and therefor will still make a TeLiTab for each case although Mode% might be 0. This can be resolved by using quotes arount the InpVars. See the second example below.

Examples

Mode%=0

If you have parameter A and B and relation

C0# = TELITAB#(0, A, B)

Calculate C0# with a value for A (for instance 1) and B (for instance 2). This results for C0#:

2 
"A"                                1
"B"                                2

Restart the calculation with ranges for A and B, A = 1(1)10 and B = 2(2)20 (say you want no matrix). This returns for C0#:

0 
 2   "A" "B"
"1"    1   2
"2"    2   4
"3"    3   6
"4"    4   8
"5"    5  10
"6"    6  12
"7"    7  14
"8"    8  16
"9"    9  18
"10"  10  20

Mode%=0 inside an object 

If you have parameter A and B, the previous relation for C0# and relation:

C0_2#=B_OBJECT(@C0#,@A:"1", @B:"2(1)6")

Calculate C0_2#, the relation will create B_OBJECT and calculate C0# inside this object using 1 as input for A and 2 to 6 with increments of 1 as input for B. Using C0# as written above without quotes this results into the following for C0-2#:

 

1 
  "A"                                1
   2  "B"
  "1"   2
  "2"   3
  "3"   4
  "4"   5
  "5"   6
  "C0#"
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }

You see that on the top level there is only one list parameter A with the value 1, and there are two table parameters B and C0#, with eacht C0# containing a list of A and a table of B. 
Althought we used Mode%=0, Every case of B has its own TeLiTab C0# with the same content. This is caused by the fact that B is a muti case value in the object B_Object and the TeLiTabC0# depends on it. As a result, Quaestor concludes that each case should have its value for C0#.

To resolve this, write C0# as follows:

C0# = TELITAB#(0, "A", "B")

Carry out the same calculation. The result for C0_2# will now be:

 

2 
  "A"                                1
  "C0#"         
  {
1 
"A"                                1
 1  "B"
"1"   2
"2"   3
"3"   4
"4"   5
"5"   6
  }
   1  "B"
  "1"   2
  "2"   3
  "3"   4
  "4"   5
  "5"   6

Now you see that on the tob level there are two list parameters A and C0# (with the same content as the first example) and there is only one table parameter B. Now there is only oneTeLiTab for A and all case of B, in correspondance with the Mode% used in the syntax.

Mode%=1

The previous relation is changed 

C1# = TELITAB#(1, A, B) 

Calculate C1# with a value for A (for instance 1) and B (for instance 2). This results for C0#:

 

2 
"A"                                1
"B"                                2

Restart the calculation with ranges for A and B, A = 1(1)10 and B = 2(2)20 (say you want no matrix).

You will see that a TeLiTab C1# is made for every case. For instance for case 5:

2 
"A"                                5
"B"                               10

If we do a copy to clipboard for the total solution for C1# and do a preview we get:

0 
 3   "A" "B"
"1"    1   2
"2"    2   4
"3"    3   6
"4"    4   8
"5"    5  10
"6"    6  12
"7"    7  14
"8"    8  16
"9"    9  18
"10"  10  20
