Enumerations

Some data fields contain specific numbers that stand for certain values. These enumerations typically represent all data that is shown in a drop-down list in Acquisition or Data Analysis.

You can use enumerations as follows - these examples return the number of unknown peaks:

  • Count(CurrentSequence.AllPeaksOfType(PeakOrGroupType.Unknown))

  • Count(CurrentSequence.AllPeaksOfType(0))

In a formula, you can use either the enumerable as is or enumerable.ToString(). The first returns the number of the enumeration, the second returns its meaning. For example:

  • Compound_Type returns 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5

  • Compound_Type.ToString() returns Unknown, Expected, UncalibratedExpected, PeakSum, Group, or NotIdentifiedExpected

For details on the single enumerations and values, see Enumerations in the Report Template Editor help.
