Hi,
I want to run a script that runs monteCarlo for N number of runs and
extract the mean/median/sigma of a few parameters in a file.
I used the skill script (sourcelink ref no.11026072) , as suggested by
Andrew.
On ocean prompt, the following syntax returns true:
ocean> monteExpr( "avgIvdd" "average(clip(IT(\"/V6/MINUS\") 1n 4n))" )
ocean> t
and it returns error for
ocean> monteExpr( "avgi" "average(clip(i("V6:p") 2n 4n))")
*Error* lineread/read: syntax error encountered in input
I still use both.
Then I run the analysis
ocean > monteRun()
But once the run is complete, still I get the error as follows:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mc1-003_tran: time = 4.875 ns (97.5 %), step = 1.076 ps

Then after lots of warnings, following messege appears

Errors with output expressions found:
"avgIvdd" does not evaluate properly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, I observe that the skill script seems to be changing the
resultsDir to different path than what I specify in my ocean-script.
Another interesting thing is that I can plot the waveforms using
plot(clip(i("V6:p") 1n 4n)))
but not using
plot(clip(IT(\"/V6/MINUS\") 1n 4n)))
Can somebody please help me how to solve the problem.
