Algorithm Variables (qmptc0122m000)

Use this session to assign variables to characteristics so that these variables can be used in algorithm's expression.

 

Algorithm

An expression that is used to compute a characteristic by means of other variables or fixed characteristics.

Variable

A code that holds the value of a aspect or characteristic. This value will be used in the expression of an algorithm to calculate the value of another aspect or characteristic.

Aspect

A part of an item. For example, a bolt can have the aspects head and tail. An aspect can have one or more characteristics. For example, a head can have a diameter and a length, and a tail can have a diameter and a color.

Characteristic

A reference to a particular quality or distinctive mark of an item or an item part/component. For example, diameter, length, weight.
