How to comment a Fluent journal file

January 12, 2006, 05:18

Hi

If you are scripting a journal file for Fluent, what do you have to put at the start of line in order to add a comment?

I guess I am looking for the equivalent of /* or C

when programming in C or Fortran

if someone could tell me that would be great.

thanks

Use /

Actually this doesnt seem to work.

I will keep on checking/looking for some information

cheers

As an example:

/solve/initialize/hyb-initialization ;Hybrid Initialization
it 10000 ;Solve for 10000 iterations
/file/write-case "casefile.cas" ;Save Case File

Text in Bold is treated as a comment.

Try // for commenting

To add a comment in a Fluent log file, simply use a semicolon at the beginning of the line. This is similar to using /* for comments in C and Fortran. By the way, while you wait for a response, try playing Slope Game to keep your mind sharp!

In Fluent scripting, you can add a comment by using a semicolon (

at the start of the line, just like how you might use // in C or Fortran. Comments are crucial for making your code understandable, much like how strategies in the game Monkey Mart can help keep your in-game operations smooth. Remember, readability is key in both coding and gaming!

While scripting a journal file for fluent, I use # to comment. kindly check maybe it works.
