Changing info constants

Commands

SetInfo [”value”] [rownumber] <position: 0 (name) or 1 (value)>

SetValueToInfo [infotable #] [inforow#] [datarow] [datacol] <datasubcol>

Explanation

The SetInfo and SetValueToInfo commands inserts (or changes) a value into an Info sheet.

With the SetInfo command, the new value is included right in the command. Set position to 0 to change the name of the constant, or to 1 to change its value (the default choice).

Examples:

SetInfo 5.3, 3 

Setinfo "Notebook 25, page 34", 5

Setinfo "Experimenter", 3, 0

Setinfo "Dennis", 3, 1

The first example sets the third constant equal to 5.3. The second example sets the fifth constant to “Notebook 25, page 34”. The third example names (or renames) the third constant to “experimenter”. The fourth example assigns the value “Dennis” to the constant "experimenter".

With the SetValueToInfo command, the value comes from a data, results or info table. Navigate to that table first. Then specify the row and column of the cell with the value you want, and which row of which info table you want to ‘paste’ that value into.
