NOTE: errstr was renamed to errsym. Added errsym builtin function. The errsym(errnum | "E_STRING") builtin, , when given a valid integer errnum that corresponds to a calc error condition, will return an E_STRING string, AND when given a valid E_STRING string that is associated with a calc error condition, will return errnum integer that corresponds to a calc error condition. Supplying a non-integer numeric errnum code to error(), errno(), strerror(), or errsym() will result in an error.

NAME
|
|
newerror - create or recall a user defined error condition
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
newerror([str])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
str string
|
|
|
|
return error-value
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
If str is not "" and has not earlier been used as an argument for
|
|
this function, newerror(str) creates a new described error-value so
|
|
that any future use of newerror(str) with the same str will return
|
|
the same error-value.
|
|
|
|
When this function is called, the global calc error count (see
|
|
help errcount) is incremented. If the global calc error count
|
|
exceeds the maximum count (see help errmax), any ongoing calc
|
|
execution is aborted.
|
|
|
|
If x = newerror(str), both strerror(x) and strerror(iserro(x)) will
|
|
return str and iserror(x) will return the error code value of the
|
|
new error.
|
|
|
|
The null cases newerror() and newerror("") are equivalent to
|
|
newerror("???").
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
Note that by default, errmax() is 0 so unless errmax() is
|
|
increased you will get:
|
|
|
|
; ba = newerror("curds n' whey");
|
|
Error 20000 caused errcount to exceed errmax
|
|
|
|
; errmax(errcount()+5)
|
|
0
|
|
; e1 = newerror("triangle side length <= 0")
|
|
; iserror(e1)
|
|
20000
|
|
; error(20000)
|
|
Error 20000
|
|
; strerror(error(20000))
|
|
"triangle side length <= 0"
|
|
; strerror(e1);
|
|
"triangle side length <= 0"
|
|
; strerror(error(iserror(e1)))
|
|
"triangle side length <= 0"
|
|
|
|
; define area(a,b,c) {
|
|
;; local s;
|
|
;; if (!(a > 0) || !(b > 0) || !(c > 0)) return e1;
|
|
;; s = (a + b + c)/2;
|
|
;; if (s <= a || s <= b || s <= c) return newerror("Non-triangle sides");
|
|
;; return sqrt(s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c));
|
|
;; }
|
|
"area" defined
|
|
|
|
; A = area(8,2,5);
|
|
; if (iserror(A)) print strerror(A) : ":", iserror(A);
|
|
Non-triangle sides: 20001
|
|
|
|
; A = area(-3,4,5)
|
|
; if (iserror(A)) print strerror(A) : ":", iserror(A);
|
|
triangle side length <= 0: 20000
|
|
|
|
LIMITS
|
|
The number of new described error-values is not to exceed E__USERMAX-E__USERDEF
|
|
(which is usually 12767 calls to the newerror function).
