Input iy1

Input

XYRange

<active>
 Specify the input XY range (curve) for the first curve for finding the intersection points
Input iy2

Input

XYRange

<active>
 Specify the input XY range (curve) for the second curve for finding the intersection points
Method method

Input

int

0
 Specify a method to interpolate the Y values when finding the intersection points. Three methods are available.

Option list:

  • linear:Linear{0}
  • spline:Cubic Spline{1}
  • bspline:Cubic B-Spline{2}

Notes: For more information about these three methods, please refer to the Interpolate Extrapolate Help page.

Sampling Points npts

Input

int

1000
 Specify the number of interpolated points
Intersection Points oy

Output

XYRange

<new>
 Specify the output range.

Examples

This Labtalk script example shows you how to calculate the intersection for two datasets: 

newbook;
col(1)=data(1,15,1);
col(2)=data(1,15,1);
col(3)=col(1)*2-7;
intersect iy1:=col(2) iy2:=col(3) method:=0 npts:=100
