Re: longest run of zeros

Got it:

Used IF THEN ELSE to catch when zero stream started and count it. Used SAMPLE IF TRUE to find the maximum length of the counted stream.
Thanks

Re: longest run of zeros

I realise how I can solve this.

But I need to reset a level to zero after the data stream changes back to 650 (having accumulated the count of zeros in another variable).
I can't find a way to do this, is there a reset variable command?

longest run of zeros

I have a flow that can either 650 or zero depending on other conditions. I need to calculate the longest period where the flow remains zero.

e.g. 650,650,0,0,0,650,0,0,0,0,0,650,0,0 the answer would be 5 (days in my case).

I have PLE Plus is there a way to code this?

Thanks

Re: Custom Report

Thank you I use Notepad++ so easy.

But how once I create in notepad do I get it into Vensim model to get the data variables into the report?

Custom Report

I know this is a newbie question but:

I have read the help documentation and see I can create a custom report with the:REPORT keyword followed by my text and variables etc.

But how to do this? Where is the text editor or menu item? Where do I type this keyword. I have PLE PLus?

Thanks

Accessing value of a variable at a previous time

I am developing a simple tank model.

I am calculating the tank volume based on inflows and outflows. In my case I need to use the tank volume at Time-1 in an equation.

How do I do that?

Vensim and stella question

In Stella, in the interface, I can create a "numeric display" which provides a continuous readout of a variable as it changes with time. This enables me to watch a variable as the simulation proceeds. Is there a way to replicate this in Vensim? I can create graphs etc but not just a changi...

Where are the example models?

I have newly purchased Vensim PLE PLus and installed it. It works fine and its nice to be able to move from the free version.

However, I cannot locate the example models mentioned throughout the Help documentation. Where can I find them or download them please.

Thanks
