Variable Growth with respect to time

Post by aashay_sh »

Hi All,

What function do I use to show an increment in a variable with respect to time?

I.e. I want fuel price to be x at t0 and y and t1 with constant growth. In this case t0 is the initial time of the model and t1 is the final time of the model. I tried to use the ramp function but the ramp function returns a value of 0 at t0 rather than x.

Many thanks,

You could use the RAMP function and add a constant to it.
