saveValue Function for Tracking Metrics Over Time
This is a series of videos about developing a function to store values over time. I use the function to capture and track daily metrics on various quantities, then plot them in reports to see trends. The videos use the code-along style.
saveValue with a MAT-File Object
In the next video in this series of videos about developing a set of functions to store values over time, I investigate using the MAT-file object to store the values.
Fixing Errors in the Value Store
Sometimes when I record a variable with the saveValue function, it is a mistake, or it was a test, or it was some outlier that I do not want to keep forever. Here I load, edit and resave to fix.
In the eighth video in this series about developing functions to store values over time, I put the function to work by adding it to some of my scripts and reports to let me start tracking values.
Specifying datetime Input Format
In the sixth video in this series about developing functions to store values over time, I look into satisfying the use case of specifying a custom date when saving the value.
In the fifth video in this series about developing functions to store values over time, I use the datetime object to store the timestamp associated with the value.
In this first video, I write a test script to capture the uses cases of the functions, which will be the requirements that direct the development.
In the fourth video in this series about developing functions to store values over time, I write the loadValue function to retrieve previously stored values.
In the sixth video in this series about developing functions to store values over time, I look into satisfying the use case of specifying a custom date when saving the value.
