SUMCASES computes the sum of the values of a series of cases of its argument parameter in the current solution

Syntax

SUMCASES(Parameter, FromCase, ToCase)

Arguments

  • Parameter to be calculated in the multi-case solution (or in an object)
  • FromCase case number (row of a table) to start with 
  • ToCase case number to stop

Remarks

  1. The SUMCASES function can be used to compute e.g. the advancing average of Parameter or as a primitive form of integration by summing the values of Parameter from all cases from FromCase up to the current case. When current case > ToCase, the sum up to ToCase is returned.

Examples

B# = SUMCASES(A, 3, 6)

returns the following result for a variation of parameter A from 1-10 (A = 1(1)10 ):
0
2  "b" "a"
"1"   0.00  1.00
"2"   0.00  2.00
"3"   3.00  3.00
"4"   7.00  4.00
"5"  12.00  5.00
"6"  18.00  6.00
"7"  18.00  7.00
"8"  18.00  8.00
"9"  18.00  9.00
"10" 18.00 10.00
