The following example shows how you can perform a conditional
assignment inside a Formula Node.

Consider a code fragment that computes the square root of

x

if

x

is positive,

and assigns the result to

y

. If

x

is negative, the code assigns –99 to

y

.

if (x >= 0) then

y = sqrt(x)

else

y = -99

end if

You can implement the code fragment using a Formula Node, as shown in
the following illustration.
