IN range comparison

Former Member — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 09:40:00 GMT

Hi,

How do I check if a value is in a range?

I am testing the 'IN' clause as follows:-

my test_value is declared as :-

lv_current_value TYPE atwrt, with a value of '210'

my range_table is declared as :-

RANGES: lr_check_value FOR ausp-atwrt.

and has the table entry =

sign = 'I',

option = 'BT'.

low = '200'

high = '400'

I would have expected the following test to come out positive

IF test_value IN lr_check_value.

test = positive

else.

test = negative.

endif.

Can ayone shed any light?

Thanks alot

Hi TS,

the following code works. Compare it with your code:

data test type string.

parameters : lv_value TYPE atwrt default '210'.

RANGES: lr_check_value FOR ausp-atwrt.

lr_check_value-sign = 'I'.

lr_check_value-option = 'BT'.

lr_check_value-low = '200'.

lr_check_value-high = '400'.

append lr_check_value.

IF lv_value IN lr_check_value.

test = 'positive'.

else.

test = 'negative'.

endif.

write test.

Regards

Dirk

Hi,

lr_check_value -sign = 'I'.

lr_check_value -option = 'BT'.

lr_check_value -low = '200'.

lr_check_value -high = '400'.

append lr_check_value.

now you can you 'IN' operator to check.

Hi,

Tried the same code as below:


DATA: p_auwrt TYPE ausp-atwrt VALUE '210'.

RANGES: r_auwrt FOR ausp-atwrt.

r_auwrt-sign = 'I'. r_auwrt-option = 'BT'.
r_auwrt-low = '200'. r_auwrt-high = '400'.
APPEND r_auwrt.

IF p_auwrt IN r_auwrt.
  WRITE:/ 'positive'.
ELSE.
  WRITE:/ 'negative'.
ENDIF.

and it works perfectly fine.

Just compare your code against this.

Cheers,

Aditya

Hi,

U have to use append statement..

sign = 'I',

option = 'BT'.

low = '200'

high = '400'

append lr_check_value . it will work..

Write the code as :

In your coding UR not giving any default value to test_value .. instead

lv_current_value is defaulted to 210 ..

*my test_value is declared as :-

*lv_current_value TYPE atwrt, with a value of '210'

tables : ausp.

data : test_value TYPE atwrt value '210'.

RANGES: lr_check_value FOR ausp-atwrt.

lr_check_value-sign = 'I'.

lr_check_value-option = 'BT'.

lr_check_value-low = '200'.

lr_check_value-high = '400'.

append lr_check_value.

IF test_value IN lr_check_value.

write 😕 'positive'.

else.

write 😕 'negative'.

endif.

Thanks for the replies...

I was appending to the table but if

you substitute the ranges values to be from value 85 and the to value to be 213

with test value = 200

the test is negative

however if if use '085' to '213' as the range

and test value = 200

the test is +ve

it was the declarationn of the range, which is character based - doh!

TS,

can you debug the program and check the values in the range lr_check_value.

Re: IN range comparison

Former Member — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 10:03:52 GMT

Yeah ,

check with low value as 085 , it worked

r_auwrt-low = '085'.
