[gradsusr] City plotter - Dan Leins

[Galebonwe Ramaphane]

Dick,

 

If you have several cities to plot, you could use the attached scipt.
You also need a text file containing the world coordinates and
corresponding names of the cities.

Dick,

 

I believe the error is due to no values in your world-coordinate
variables.  I get the same error you do, unless I initialize lon.start
and lat.start with real numbers.  For example, try running it again
after adding this line before the query line (for example):

lon.start=12.5;lat.start=45.2

 

Good luck

Hi Grads users

 

The following code delivers the error message described below. Any help
to identify the coding error would be appreciated.

Code:

'q w2xy 'lon.start' 'lat.start

xx.start=subwrd(result,3)

yy.start=subwrd(result,6)

 

*Mark each point with a period

*say 'This means x is 'xx.start' and y is 'yy.start

'set string 1 c 10 0'

'set strsiz 0.3'

'draw string  'xx.start' 'yy.start+0.1' .'

 

Results in:

Querry Error: Syntax is QUERRY W2XY LonLat

Non-numeric args to numeric operation

 

Any help would be appreciated

Rgds

Dick
