Is there a way to define ad use double type arrays? There is a SCFloatArrayRef but not a SCDoubleArrayRef. I see that the time-date use a double arrays, but if I am not mistaken, they are read only and it is not possible to write in them.. Thank's |

Why double? I attach 2 images where you can see an indicator that I have programmed in PRT time ago and that I can't to carry on Sierra because I believe the float type is not enough for that indicator.. I made several attempts as you can see in the image.. but I am not satisfied .. |

ok, the explanations are clear, but unfortunately they do not solve the problem. In my indicator I need of several calculation of the standard deviation in double format. The compiler has indicated to me that the internal calculation function asks for a float vector at the output: StdDeviation (SCFloatArrayRef In, SCFloatArrayRef Out, int Index, int Length) So I think that the only possibility that I have is to create a function for the calculation of the standard deviation that returns double values, I imagine that there is not an internal function that returns these values, right? |

Ok, I done a my standard deviation function and works, but let me know if there is a more immediate solution. Thank's |
