Hi
I am having a problem with some code which uses a sum statement, it
appears to be returning zero when I would not expect this to be the
case. The problem is two fold:
1. I dont expect the data to return zero ever
2. The problem seems in consistent, if i repeat the sum statement
after the first statement fails, it appears to work.
I have double checked my sets and parameters etc in the .lst file
below to verify the data is not be zero. Of course this does not seem
to explain (2) above. I have chopped out the relevant pieces of code
below and added comments to show where it is going strange, I dumped a
ton of other stuff so in some cases its going to seem odd/unneccessary
but just bear with it, its only the summing to zero part that I would
like focused on.
I imagine I am doing something dumb
The data is pretty simply, t = a nominal block of time, s = seasons,
mapts maps blocks to seasons, duration(t) is the number of hours in
that block. All I am trying to do is count the number of hours in a
particular season. Eg if summer contains blocks 1 2 & 3 then it would
sum up the duration of blocks 1 2 & 3.
scalar temp1;
Set
s Seasons /
Summer
Shoulder
Winter
/;
alias (s,ss);
set
thisRecord_s(s) "Which season(s) are covered by the
record being written"
;
Set
t /
B1
B2
B3
B4
B5
B6
B7
B8
B9
B10
B11

Set Mapts(t,s) Mapping of blocks to seasons /

B2 . Summer
B3 . Summer
B4 . Summer
B5 . Summer
B6 . Winter
B7 . Winter
B8 . Winter
B9 . Shoulder
B10 . Shoulder
B11 . Shoulder
---- 19296 PARAMETER Duration Duration of blocks in thousands of
hours
B1 1.224, B2 0.688, B3 0.704, B4 0.352, B5 0.704,
B6 0.720, B7 0.432, B8 1.008, B9 0.976
B10 0.560, B11 1.392
loop (s) do
{Is this entry annual (all seasons) or seasonal?}
if (%gAnnual%) then
thisRecord_s(ss) = yes; {turn all seasons on for reporting}
t_SeasonAdj = 1;
else
{-->THIS IS THE PART WHICH IS EXECUTING IN MY
INSTANCE 0, but.....}
if (NOT temp1) then
{ --> ....this fires in SUMMER (not winter or shoulder)}
{ this should NOT fire ever! }
Display "Got here a";
temp1 = sum(mapts(t,thisRecord_s), duration(t));
if (NOT temp1) then
Display "Got here b"; {<-- this never fires! Its the
same sum code from above!!! why?}
endif;
temp1 = sum((t,thisRecord_s)$mapts(t,thisRecord_s),
duration(t)); {try different code}
if (NOT temp1) then
Display "Got here c"; {<-- this never fires}
endif;
elseif (temp1 = 123456) then
Display "Got here d"; {<-- this never fires}
endif;
endloop; {s}
All help greatly appreciated.
