Registers
In the Show Stack mode, the Fields Calculator registers hold field quantities, numbers, vectors, and geometries. No registers are created until you load something into the calculator; therefore, this part of the window is initially blank. As items are loaded into the calculator, it creates new registers to hold them.
Each register is labeled with its contents as follows:
|
Vec |
Vector quantities, which have both direction and magnitude at each point in space. The x-, y-, and z-components of these quantities are stored in the register. |
|
Scl |
Scalar quantities, which have a magnitude only. |
|
CVc |
Complex vector quantities. |
|
CSc |
Complex scalar quantities. |
|
Pnt |
Points. |
|
Lin |
Lines. |
|
Srf |
Surfaces. |
|
Vol |
Volumes. |
|
SclLin |
Scalar value on a line. |
|
VecLine |
Vector value on a line. |
|
SclSrf |
Scalar value on a surface. |
|
VecSrf |
Vector value on a surface. |
When examining calculator registers, keep the following in mind:
- To move or delete calculator registers, use the stack commands.
- To save a register to a disk file, use the Write command.
