Freerefill Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I appreciate everyones hard work and effort also. I wish I had more to contribute. I no nothing about lisp and don't even know where to go to school for it or were to start to learn these. I admit my introduction to LISP was indeed in a classroom, but my co-worker CommandantBill (who occasionally posts here) learned the basics from me, in nothing but a few hours one afternoon. From there, it was simply applying them, getting used to them, and whenever he needed something new, he'd ask a question or look it up. He's as good as me now, if not better. So don't lose hope, just dig in and don't give up. ^.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Efeezy Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 We made a mistake on this one.If anyone chooses to use Volume lisp and formats to architectural or engineering units it will come up with the wrong answer. If we format units are in decimal (inches) then divided by(12x12x12)=1728 to be correct for cubic feet. using the converter formatted in arch or eng. ExLxWxH=144” wrong In decimal LxWxH= 12x12x12=1728” 1728/1728= 1 cubic foot (defun c:Volume ( / ent obj ) (vl-load-com) (if (setq ent (car (entsel))) (if (vlax-property-available-p (setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object ent)) 'Volume) (alert (strcat "Volume: " (rtos (vla-get-Volume obj)))) (alert "Selected Object Does not have a Volume Property") ) ) (princ) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Efeezy Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Sorry, wasn't trying to be a jerk. Was trying to show the right way to use it. I was wrong yesterday and didn't want anyone else to be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Efeezy Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 what is a good book or site to learn lisp? I want to learn in my spare time. I don't even know where to start. Buttons and macros are easy so far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Mac Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 These are good sites to learn the very basics: http://www.afralisp.net/ http://www.jefferypsanders.com/autolisptut.html http://ronleigh.info/autolisp/index.htm If you want to get more advanced or look at the general concepts behind programming itself: http://augiru.augi.com/content/library/au07/data/paper/CP311-4.pdf http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book-Z-H-4.html http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/ai-repository/ai/html/cltl/clm/node1.html But really, you can learn a lot more from examples posted on the forums with the VLIDE help files as a reference. Just dissect a few examples line by line, using the VLIDE as a reference and ask if you get stuck. Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
