GenerateIndexArray Task

This task generates an array of numbers.

Example

; Start the application

e = ENVI(/HEADLESS)

; Get the task from the catalog of ENVITasks

Task = ENVITask('GenerateIndexArray')

; Define task inputs

Task.MIN = 3

Task.MAX = 10

; Run the task

Task.Execute

; Print the resulting array

Print, Task.OUTPUT_ARRAY

Result:

3.0000000  4.0000000  5.0000000  6.0000000  7.0000000  8.0000000  9.0000000  10.0000000
