Strategy Analyzer - Optimization - Decimal steps?

[manugarc]

Is it possible to set decimal steps for double parameters? When I set them NT change them for integers, but I would need to use decimals. For example: 0,1;0,6;0,2 Isn't it possible?

Hello manugarc,

No, the Strategy Analyzer is only able to increment by 1 in an optimization.

You could instead use an integer as the input, divide this by 100 and store the value to a double.

Then as the integer input is incremented, this is calculated to a decimal.

Thank you Chelsea; That's in fact how I'm doing it, but I expected to be able to avoid it; it's not a mayor problem anyway, I'll keep it like that, as you say.

Hello ChelseaB, manugarc,

I am facing the same issue. Could you please explain your answer a bit further (an example would be extremely helpful, if at all possible)? I did not quite understand it. My Parameters for optimization are "double", and I would like to use Increment "double" value as well.

Thank you
David

Hello Paco0,

I believe what ChelseaB was suggesting was to divide the existing input you may have by 100, for example if you had an input named myInputProperty that was an int:

double myDouble = myInputProperty / 100;

I look forward to being of further assistance.
