Numerical expressions in NAPA Steel connection settings
A numerical expression is a string from which a number is calculated.
A numerical expression can contain the following operators:
+ |
add |
- |
substract |
* |
multiply |
/ |
divide |
Multiplication and division take precedence over adding and substracting.
A numerical expression can contain brackets ().
A number preceded by the % character is replaced by the corresponding value of the NAPA Steel parametric shape. For example, in stiffener conversion:
T*100*8*80*10 => %1 = 100, %2 = 8, %3 = 80, %4 = 10
Or in conversion of openings:
RR*100*120*40 => %1 = 100, %2 =120, %3 = 40
Note: A numerical expression cannot contain spaces.
Some examples of numerical expressions:
-30
%1
(%2+5)*0.5
100/%1
2*(%1-(%2/2))
