How to use *DOWHILE command

[hacinilyes]

Hi everybody,
I would like to know how the *DOWHILE command works, and what is the argument "par"?
Thank you.

Shouldn't this be in the Fortran forum ?

It's an ANSYS command, it is used to simulate loops, but I don't know how does it work!

Try #2 <))

"Shouldn't this be in the" ANSIS Forum ie..

Maybe this helps. Looks similar to "Do while" command
in Visual Basic. Syntax is something like this:
Do While I <= IMax
...
I=I+1
Loop

You might use this above instead of the "Do Loop" below
to compute a few things "IMax" times.
For I=1 to IMax
....
Next I

RTFM--read the "funny" manual. Must be something in
ANSYS help about this one.

This is an honest question. A DOWHILE comand keeps excuting the DO loop while the argument is true. Once the argument is false it exits the LOOP.

Hi,
this somewhat old thread has been replied in the ANSYS' forum, because it was strictly pertaining to ANSYS APDL language. Since the O.P. hasn't re-asked anything so far here, I think the thread in this forum could be deleted.
