WHILE/ENDWHILE Problems

[Joe Pietrowicz]

Your statement 
'define uwndavg'
looks strange. You say define something but not how it is to be defined. It's like saying 'define purple' but not giving the rgb levels. Should the line be
'display uwndavg' ???

Just a thought.

I attached the script with the problem so you cod look at the spacing on the script but I am continuing to have problems with the While/Endwhile loop. 

Thanks,

Hi Jason: 

This looks okay to me in terms of the while loop, however line 5 doesn't really do anything. In fact. that line should give an error like "name to long missing =" (the syntax is define newvar=something). Is this really the entire script?

To Whom it May Concern, 
I tried posting onto onto the GRADS users group website and cannot access it so I decided to post my question here. 
I am trying to do the while loop with the script below: 
'sdfopen uwndavg2001.nc < http://uwndavg2001.nc >' 

count=1 
while (count < 10) 
'set t 'count 
'define uwndavg' 
count = count + 1 
endwhile 
however, I keep getting this error when running this script: 
unable to locate ENDWHILE statement for the WHILE statement at line 3. I have endwhile statement so I am not sure what is going on with this script. Can you help me with it? 
Thanks, 
Jason
