numeric_results list_info minimum_value

Allows you to use the MINIMUM_VALUE keyword to control what information about a particular result set component should be included as it is written to the terminal or file using the NUMERICAL_RESULTS LIST_INFO command.

Format:

 

numeric_results list_info minimum_value
result_set_component_name =	an existing component
write_to_terminal =	on_off
file_name =	string

Example:

 

numeric_results list_info minimum_value
result_set_component_name =	time
write_to_terminal =	on
file_name =	"c:\info.txt"

Description:

 

Parameter	Value Type	Description
result_set_component_name	An Existing Component	Identifies the component of an existing result set.
write_to_terminal	On_Off	Specifies whether the information requested is to be sent to the informational window or not.
file_name	String	Specifies that the information requested is to be sent to a file with the name specified with the parameter.

Extended Definition:

1.	If selected, the MINIMUM_VALUE keyword will cause the minimum value of the desired result set component to be output in the form of an informational message.

This command has one required parameter, which is RESULT_SET_COMPONENT_NAME. All other parameters have default settings or are optional.

2.

The component must be in an existing result set and reference to the component must include the result set name. For example, assume you have read a request file called "SHIFT.REQ", and this request file contains the result set REQ1. If you wish to refer to the X component in the result set REQ1, enter .SHIFT.REQ1.X (the .SHIFT. may be omitted if shift is the current analysis_name). SHIFT refers to the analysis name that that result set came from (or is stored under).

Result Sets are associated with an analysis run and can be identified as such. A result set associated with request 101 from an analysis named "test" is referred to as .test.req101.

Several predefined result set types are created when Adams request and result files are read into Adams/View. For example, assume you have read a request file called "SHIFT.REQ", and this request file contains the result information for the Adams statement REQUEST/1. The result set will be named REQ1, and may also be referred to as being relative to the analysis name .shift.req1. If you wish to refer to a component in the same result set, the full name for the X component would be

.SHIFT.REQ1.X.

The following table illustrates the default names assigned to result sets and result set components, read from request (.REQ) and results (.RES) files.

3.	This parameter is most likely to be used in conjunction with the FILE_NAME parameter to get the information to be put into a file.
