Numerous Features to Help You Build Your Models
"Intelligent" Features to Help You Build Equations
All equation-enabled windows in RENO provide "intelligent" features to help you save time and avoid errors when building equations. These include:
- Auto-Complete/IntelliSense: When you press Ctrl+Space while building an equation, RENO provides a list of recognized variables and functions.
- Color-Coding: As you type, RENO automatically color-codes recognized variables, functions and operands to make it easy for you to spot typing errors, undefined variables, unmatched parentheses, etc.
- Variable Preview: RENO provides a summary of the properties of each defined variable that you use in your equations and allows you to view/edit the full definition with the click of a button.
Integration with Weibull++ and ALTA
If ReliaSoft’s Weibull++ and/or ALTA software are installed on your computer, you can use them to define the distribution and parameters for Probabilities and Random Variables based on the distributional analysis for existing data sets. The Parameter Experimenter is also available.
More Than 100 Reserved Keywords and Built-In Functions
The integrated Function Wizard provides instant access to the reserved keywords, defined variables and built-in functions that you will use in the equations for your analyses. This includes:
- User-Defined Variables: A list of the Constants, Equation Variables, Probabilities, Random Variables and other variables defined in the project.
- Reserved Keywords: A list of keywords that instruct the software to insert specific information into the equation, such as the value passed from the previous flowchart construct (IN), the total number of simulations performed (SIMS_TOTAL), the maximum value in a table (MAX_TABLE), etc.
- Pre-Defined Functions: A list
of built-in functions supported by the software. This includes:
- Engineering functions such as Bessel, Error functions, etc.
- Math and Trigonometry functions such as Sine, Derivative, Integral, Logarithm, etc.
- Financial functions such as Future Value, Cumulative Interest Paid, Periodic Payment for an Annuity, etc.
- Statistical functions such as the Weibull distribution, the Fisher Transformation, the Chi-Squared distribution, etc.
- Logical functions such as IF statements and TRUE/FALSE statements.
