i ceep getting error when i try to divide the results, were im going wrong?

Quote

search1= 30
x = x/3
gg.searchNumber(search1, gg.TYPE_FLOAT)
a = gg.getResults(8000)
gg.addListItems(a)
gg.editAll(x, gg.TYPE_FLOAT)
gg.clearResults()

How do we divide a nil value?

even 0 is a value and you still get 0 when divide with any numbers.

that's why i had the problem, x was supposed to be whatever the result was and then divide through 3...only problem is actually its a group search...that's why x was supposed to be nil..it was supposed to take whatever was gone be in the results..am i explaining correct to you?

You search for number 30.

results will show values with 30 only.

then edit with x value??

where the x is coming from??

it has to be  group search, if i have to type every value down and edit them 1 by 1 it wont be productive for future parts of the scripts.

X was supposed to be the function to edit the results.

if i put "x" instead of the value it was supposed to mean that after

gg.getResults(100)


X would then take those results and divide it through 3.. from there x = x/3

[ItsSC]

function X(value,range)
  local value, range = value, range;
  local code = value .. ";" ;
  local next = value/ 3;
  local previous = next;
  code = code .. next .. ";" ;
  for i = 1 , range-1 do
    next = previous / 3;
    code = code .. next .. ";" ;
    previous = next;
  end
  code = code .. "::" .. tostring((range)* 4 + 1);
  return code 
end

-- Usage
x = X(30,2)
print(x)
-- output : 30;10;3::13

You better show full example with all numbers. For example for 10 rows. What you get from search, what you want receive as result and so on.

Because you use word "devide" with some sence only known for you.
