MathScript bug?

[thomas2609]

hello,

i just wonder why only one of these 2 Math scripts workes.

1.) x= 0:0.1:1 does not work in LabVIEW 8.0 but In MATLAB

2.) x= 0:1e-1:1 workes in LabVIEW 8.0 and in MATLAB

ad 1 error message "Error in function range at line 1. You cannot specify a step size of zero for a range."

aha, well 0.1 is not zero in my eyes. can anyone tell me whey my LabVIEW 8.0 does that?

my guess whould be that it is a bug. :-)

cheers thomas

Have you tried with comma (,) instead of period (.) as decimal character?

I think JFM is right...

x= 0:0.1:1 does work om my LabVIEW 8.0.1

Go to Tools >> Options >> Front Panel >> on the second line you can enable/disable "use localized decimal separator". the default setting depends on your Windows settings.

"use localized decimal separator" worked, after restarting labview.

thx for your help thomas
