[ncl-talk] usage of "continue" [SEC=UNOFFICIAL]

[Eun-Pa Lim]

Dear Jack

Thanks for your reply ☺

I was just trying to make very simple do loops looking like this in old fortran

Do i=0,10
   Do j=0,20
      If(a(i).eq.b(j)) then
          X = j
          Go to 333
       End if
   End do
333 continue
End do

But "Go to " is not a statement used in NCL, and there is not much explanation about "continue" in the NCL page.

There must be a way to do this in NCL I reckon!

Cheers

Really…? I guess it will be easier if you show a piece of ncl script which gives a hint of what you are trying to achieve. In principle if you understand what “continue” means/does in ‘your preferred' language, then I assume you should be able to implement or know whether it is possible to implement a similar algorithm in ncl after reading the ncl-statements documentation and probably going through a few examples.

Or you can just provide a Pseudocode of your intended program to make it easier for somebody to help.

Hi NCL users,

Could anybody please teach me how to use "continue" in a do loop in NCL? I can't find an example in https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Manuals/Ref_Manual/NclStatements.shtml

Many thanks!
