Learning MEL ..Cant solve this error

[Joviex]

Hello,
Just started learning MEL ..
tried making this reamer script
the problem is it does the job but it gives me a error at the end saying

// Error: No object matches name //
Can some one guide me what is wrong in my basic coding :)

thanx in advance :arteest:


The problem looks like your code runs at least one time, and if there is no object named (in the default case) "rice_0" it is telling you that object does not exist.

The potential problem is:


$j<=$i


On the first evaluation, if $i=0 (no objects), then it will still run through the loop at least once because $J also = 0.

What you can do to eliminate this case:


int $i = `size $whatzPicked`-1;


OR change:


$j < $i;


both are mutually exclusive.

p.s. using the php blocks = I cant read your code unless I highlight it on screen. Try using code ... /code instead

HTH

Right... thanx a tone joviex for pointing it out.... index in a array start at zero...
and yeah that php thing is really eye straining...
