3.6.4.31 NewFunction

NewFunction-macro

Counts the number of datasets that begin with the letter F (function datasets) and opens the function's Plot Details dialog box to create a new function named Fn where n is one more than the number of datasets counted. If the FUNCTION.OTP graph template is not opened before executing NewFunction, then the function dataset Fn is created but not plotted.

Definition:

Def NewFunction {
      list -sn F B;create %B -f 10;
      def ErrorProc [del %B];set %B;del -m ErrorProc;
};

Example:

The following script creates a new graph window from the FUNCTION.OTP template and then creates and plots a new function named F1 (assuming that no other function datasets already exist).

GetEnumWin Function;
NewFunction;
