Circle Averages

[Chuck]

I'm trying to get the average diameter of some circles and report them. So far I have done this:

ASSIGN/V1= CIR1.+CIR2.+CIR3./3

But, my assign line in the edit window comes out in red. So I guess I'm not doing something right. And, how do I report the variable? Do I go into location and diameter and plug in the variable there? I'm still running ver. 3.2063
Thanks, Chuck

Assign/v1= (cir1.d+cir2.d+cir3.d)/3

You need the .D extesion for diameter.

COMMENT/REPT,"The average value of Cir1, Cir2, Cir3 is:" + V1

If you dont want to add another dim to your report you can always put it in a report comment like this one above.

Of if you would rather have your variable in a Dimension so it looks snazzy. Place your value into a Generic Feature, and then Dimension that instead.

$$ NO,Make V1 Your average actual dia
     ,Make v2 your average theo dia
            ASSIGN/V1 = 15
            ASSIGN/V2 = 15.5
