I'd have to see your scans to get a better idea of what you're trying to do. I do all my thinking in code, so I need to input code to get the mind working. If I could simply translate theories into code, I'd start with a theory of quantum gravity. It might yield some interesting signals. Also, I'd translate Hegel's "Phenomenology" into the language of QP. But no -- the mind's wheels won't spin without code for input. Code in, code out (just like a shack in the wintry woods). Brooke

I thought that it would be a simple thing to combine the scans into one and have Q+ calculate the statistics going back a hundred days or so, but then realized that the variables are reset for each new symbol that gets processed. Is there any way around this? Is there a way to use global variables? No. Quotes Plus Version 2 only has local variables and whatever value they had is lost every time you test a new symbol. In other words Quotes Plus Version 2 does not have static variables.
