MENU>VDF2TAB & Double Precision

Post by pz »

Hi,
using DSS Double Precision, I notice that the MENU>VDF2TAB exports data with less digits then the calculation engine uses. This causes inconsistency between values in the model (High precision) and values in the exported data file.
Is there a way to force the same precision in exported data?

If you need high precision data you will need to control simulation execution (vensim_start_simulation, continue, finish) and then call vensim_get_dpval or vensim_get_dpvecval to retrieve the data. The results of a simulation are not stored in double precision so this information is not in the dataset.
