INCR
INCRement resets default increment.
Form
I[NCR] [value]
Parameter Explanation
value New increment value you wish to establish. (For limitations, see Note below.)
Purpose
The INCRement command resets the default INCRement to your new "value". Once you use the INCR
command, all subsequent commands which require the increment value will use your new value unless
you specify a different increment in the parameters of the command. Typing "I[NCR]" without "value"
resets the default value of RISE, which is 1.
NOTE There are limits to the INCREMENT value that RISE will accept. The
increment value must be between 0.001 and 5000 inclusively.
Execution mode: Line or Block
Examples
The following are legal abbreviations which may be used with the INCrement command and its
parameters:
I 100 Sets increment value to 100.
I Resets increment value to default system value of 1.
In the first example, an error message results from an incorrect entry of the INCR command (1). When a
parameter that should be numeric is entered alphabetically, a second error message appears (2). The
command is then entered correctly but a listing of the file in this case a five line truncation of SIMCAL--
does not indicate any change in the increment value (3). However, when RENUMber is entered, a LIST
ALL then produces the effects of the changed increment value (4).
