CS_PointsTable( tab )

tab is a two dimensional array where the first column contains the input values and the second column contains the corresponding output values.

Example:

tab = System.Array.CreateInstance(float,6,2)
tab[0,0]=-100.
tab[1,0]=-8.
tab[2,0]=-7.9
tab[3,0]= 7.9
tab[4,0]= 8.
tab[5,0]= 100.

tab[0,1]=1.0
tab[1,1]=1.0
tab[2,1]=0.1
tab[3,1]=0.1
tab[4,1]=1.0
tab[5,1]=1.0
Table = CS_PointsTable(tab);

stiffness chart

Here, the output (shown as Stiffness in the chart above) varies in a linear, piece-wise manner. For values of input less than -8.0 or greater than 8.0, the output is equal to 1.0. For values between -7.9 and +7.9, the output is 0.1. The transition is linear between -8.0 and -7.9, and as well between +7.9 and +8.0.
