[gradsusr] Script Problems

[Andrew Revering]

This is a simple but annoying problem. I have an equation in a script.

 

'define MinCAPE = math_int(1.4 * hgt0deg - 5400)'

if (MinCAPE < 200) ; MinCAPE = 200 ; endif

 

 

 

I get an error saying math_int() is not a valid function.. 

also the whole IF statement is completely ignored. No matter what I do, I
still get negative values for MinCAPE.

 

BTW.this is a unconventional method for me to determine if there is 'enough'
CAPE to support a severe thunderstorm given the freezing level height in
case anyone is wondering.
