  2. Using an object as a function 
  3. Creating a multiple case solution
Prior knowledge



1    Objective

 

In this tutorial, you will create the shape of a ship's waterline in a table of frame numbers and relative, dimensionless widths. The dataset containing variations of the main dimensions of a ship from tutorial 1 is stored in a data object Ships in the dataset of the knowledge base, so it can be easily used in further calculations. This dataset combined with the dimensionless width table is used to calculate the width at the waterline at every other frame number for every variation.

Note

Note that the word frame is used here as a ship's frame, not as a frame in Quaestor.
